Empowering Caregivers Through Education
The Jean Griswold Foundation Scholarship Program
Where would we be without Caregivers? Their selflessness is astounding, yet they are often overlooked and underappreciated. The Jean Griswold Foundation is dedicated to supporting Caregivers, the backbone of the care industry. We provide educational scholarships so Care Professionals can further their training, enhance their skills, elevate their careers, and better assist the people they serve.
Our Winter 2024 Scholarship application window is closed. The next window for our Summer 2025 scholarship will open on February 21st, 2025.
