RMHC®/HACER® National Scholarship Program

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” ~ Nelson Mandela

In this day and age, education is the key needed to open opportunities and possibilities. It transforms a person’s world! Knowing this, I’m always so excited to share scholarship opportunities with you, my readers. If you can not use the information yourself, please share it with others. It may be the financial incentive they need to complete their education!

There are currently four different scholarship programs available:

1. RMHC®/ASIA (Asian Students Increasing Achievement)
2. RMHC®/African American Future Achievers
3. RMHC®/HACER® (Hispanic American Commitment to Educational Resources)
4. RMHC® Scholars (Open to all students, regardless of race, color, creed, religion, sexual orientation, gender, disability or national origin.)

Note, graduating high school seniors may only apply for one of the four scholarships.
