Who among us does not know a courageous woman working at least 40 hours a week, raising a family, volunteering in our community, and attending night school on top of it all? She is anyone: your waitress…co-worker…hair stylist…daughter. Like me, you may wonder, “How does she DO it? And how can I help?”
Every spring, Rockford Network offers education scholarships to two amazing local women seeking to advance their careers. Our recipients are high school or GED graduates who have spent a minimum of five years in the workforce (or as community volunteers), and they must use the funds toward a degreed program at an accredited institution such as Rock Valley College, Rockford Business College, NIU and others.
