The Tim DeWitt Harvest Education Foundation is now accepting scholarship applications for the 2023/2024 academic year. The foundation was established to provide educational opportunities for students wanting a career in the RV and campground, manufactured housing or self-storage industry. The deadline for submission is April 14.
The foundation is awarding scholarships between $500 and $2,000. Students who will enroll or are currently enrolled at an accredited university, college or vocational school may apply.
Scholarships will also be awarded to students whose career goals may not involve those industries but who are outstanding scholars or students with compelling needs.
“The Tim DeWitt Harvest Education Foundation has awarded hundreds of scholarships in its more than 30 years of existence,” said John Lindley, president and CEO of MMH/RVCA and Self-Storage Association of Michigan. “Our associations’ memberships and staff are proud to have helped so many students work toward advanced education,”
Since 1991, the foundation has awarded over $400,000 in financial aid to more than 670 students. In 2022, 18 college-bound students were recipients of a scholarship.
“In offering these scholarships, we are introducing students to career opportunities they might not have realized are available in the RV, camping, manufactured housing, and self-storage industries,” Lindley said. “They get to see a unique prospect in the work force and our industries benefit by bringing in new critical thinking and fresh perspectives.”
