Local 4502 Sets Up Scholarship Fund For Children of Members

The CMAGE/CWA Executive Board has just implemented a historic financial benefit for the children of Local 4502 members who will be attending college. Starting this year, Local 4502 will fund $10,000.00 in financial aid for college bound seniors. In order to provide the fairest allocation of this resource, a lottery will be held at a future membership meeting for all those who have applied for the Local 4502 Scholarship. There will be a total of 10 - $1000.00 scholarships available. Each individual child can qualify for one scholarship per year for a total of two years of lifetime award. If all 10 scholarships are not applied for, the money will be rolled over to the next year. A complete guide on the process and how to apply will be posted on the CMAGE website in the coming weeks. The Executive Board estimates the first scholarship lottery to be held at the Fall membership meeting.
It is this type of commitment to Local membership that makes our Union a strong and viable resource. Your elected leadership strongly supports our children’s future, and the future of Central Ohio. We hope that in the coming years there will be stories to share of victories achieved and lives changed due in part to this generous show of financial aid. If you have college bound children, we encourage you to stay informed and up to date on the process as it unfolds.
