It’s scholarship time! The LeadingAge Kansas Foundation is proud to announce the opening of this year’s scholarship application period. This program provides scholarships to full and part-time employees in LeadingAge Kansas member homes.

Here are a few examples: CMA, Administrator, Culinary School, BS in Human Resources, Personal Training Certificate, MS in Divinity, CDM, SSD, AD, RN, LPN … You dream it (and apply) and the Foundation can help you achieve it.
