2024 Scholarship

The Massachusetts Senior Care Foundation’s annual Scholarship Program assists long term care staff in meeting their personal and professional goals through furthering their education. Since 1985, the Foundation has awarded nearly $3 million dollars in scholarships to more than 1,600 deserving long term care staff, known as “Foundation Scholars.” The annual program, funded through the generosity of long term care providers and related organizations, supports the Foundation's mission to promote the development of a skilled and committed workforce.

The Foundation is now accepting applications for its 2024 awards. Scholarships from $500 to $2,000 will be awarded to selected applicants to cover direct, out of pocket expenses for tuition, fees, books, and supplies incurred during the period January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024. In addition, the Peggi Leoni Memorial Scholarship, in the amount of $2,000 will be awarded to an applicant who embodies the qualities of leadership and caring, as well as a commitment to quality in long term care, that define Peggi’s legacy. Applicants must be currently employed by a Massachusetts Senior Care Association member facility, and have worked in one of those settings for at least one year. Prior scholarship recipients are eligible to apply for a 2024 Massachusetts Senior Care Foundation Scholarship. Please click here to review the eligibility requirements and required application materials.

Please note that the application and all required components must be submitted online at the same time and received by Massachusetts Senior Care Foundation no later than 4:00 pm on Friday, August 2, 2024.
