MRCA Foundation Announces Scholarship Recipients

By MRCA.

The MRCA Foundation Scholarship program awards scholarships to MRCA Member Company Employees and their immediate family members on an annual basis. 

Once applications are received, they are reviewed by the Foundation Board of Directors.  They select recipients based on various criteria such as GPA, letters of recommendation, the content of their essay explaining what field of study they are planning to pursue, and financial need.

The amount of the scholarship awarded each year is determined by the number of qualified applicants and the funds available.  Applications for 2020 scholarships will be available December.

The main source of funding for the scholarships is MRCA’s Annual Auction Event that is held in conjunction with the MRCA Annual Conference and Expo.  This year, the Foundation Auction Event will be held on November 21, 2019 at the Overland Park Convention Center in Overland Park, Kansas.  The theme for this year is Dancing Through the Decades and the auction will be held in conjunction with the MRCA Prom!  All registered Conference Attendees and Exhibitors are invited to attend. 

Please consider supporting the fundraising efforts by donating an item for the auction and attending the conference!

Registration is open and when you register for the conference you are automatically registered for the auction and dance party.
