View our Past Scholarship Winners
From the student who has just finished a first term in a funeral service education program, to the experienced funeral director who has served families for a generation, our scholarship winners have three characteristics in common: promise, purpose and passion.
The Foundation is proud to showcase our scholarship winners, and it’s not uncommon to see a name listed in several scholarship categories. That’s because our scholarship winners understand that we are here to support them throughout their careers.
