The 2012 Resident Scholarship Application 
Deadline to submit a completed application is May 17, 2012.

The scholarship funds, which are paid directly to the educational institution, can be used toward higher education at any accredited college, university, or vocational training program in the country.

The Michaels Educational Foundation has committed at least $175,000 in scholarship funds for the 2012-2013 year.

Last year, the foundation received a record number of applications and awarded a record number of scholarships, and the hope is that trend will continue.

Foundation funds are raised through the financial support of corporations, companies, families, private trusts and individuals known throughout the Michaels business network. In addition, Michaels’ Chairman and CEO, Michael Levitt and his wife Pat Levitt contribute $2 for every dollar raised by the Foundation.

To date, more than $2.8 million in grants have been awarded, benefitting more than 1,300 students, including 62 military children or spouses who have received $169,000 in educational grants.

Applications should be turned into the Harbor Bay at MacDill Management Office.
Scholarship awards will be announced in June.
