Cloverland Cares excitedly announces 13 scholarship recipients in 2024. The Cloverland Cares scholarship is available to high school seniors or any member returning to school to complete a degree. Scholarship applications were evaluated based on an essay, financial need, school involvement, community service and work experience, educational and career goals, plus supporting letters of recommendation. Each recipient will be awarded a one-time scholarship.
Eligible schools include Lake Superior State University, Bay Mills Community College, Les Cheneaux Culinary School, Great Lakes Boat Building School and utility-tech programs offered at Alpena Community College, Lansing Community College and Northern Michigan University.
“We extend well wishes to our 13 scholarship recipients as they pursue their future career and educational endeavors,” said Cloverland Electric’s President and CEO, Mike Heise. “Congratulations to all recipients who are great examples of ambition and determination!”
Cloverland Cares scholarship funds are available through donations from American Transmission Company, Wisconsin Energy Corporation, Cloverland Electric Cooperative and member donations from monthly bill roundups.
Scholarship recipients will be honored at Cloverland Electric Cooperative’s Annual Meeting of the Members at 6 p.m. Thursday, June 6, 2024, at Lake Superior State University’s Arts Center. All Cloverland members are welcome to attend the annual meeting. More information is available on Cloverland.com.
