LeadingAge Kansas is grateful for the opportunity to serve you as you as you care for the elders of Kansas.  One of the ways we serve is through a scholarship program designed to provide scholarships exclusively for aging services professionals within the LeadingAge Kansas membership. Since its creation the program has awarded over $110,000 in scholarships to 100 aging services professionals, just like you and your co-workers.    

Going forward we want to give even more scholarships but need your help.  Would you consider donating on #GivingTuesday to support these scholarships? Donations of any amount help us support caregivers as they learn, grow and serve elders.  Here are some examples of how your support helps.  

  • $100 helps a caregiver pay for a continuing education course.   
  • $250 helps a caregiver complete a certification course. 
  • $500 or more provides a caregiver with a scholarship for college. 

Busy that day or just want to donate now? You can make a gift now to be processed on #GivingTuesday. And, since #GivingTuesday relies on the limitless potential of social media, don’t forget to share, tag us, and use the hashtags #GivingTuesday and #scholarshipsforcaregivers. 

Remember you can apply for this scholarship too!  Applications will be accepted in the spring.  

From all of us at the LeadingAge Kansas Foundation, thank you for the work you do each day for Kansas elders, your support on #GivingTuesday and every single day you help to enable our mission.
