The Funeral Service Foundation Marks 20 Years of Academic Scholarship Support Selected Educational Trust Announces Second-Career Scholarships to be Awarded NEWS Educational CONTINUED BROOKFIELD,WI— The Funeral Service Foundation is marking its twentieth year of awarding academic scholarships. Up to 35 scholarships ranging from $2,500- $5,000 were available to current students of funeral service and military veterans who met the eligibility criteria. The Foundation offered its first academic scholarship, the Joseph E. Hagan Memorial Scholarship, in 2002. In the two decades since, additional scholarships were established in memory of Shipley Rose Buckner and Dennis Schoepp, and in honor of Steve Lang and Bob Horn. Memorial Classic Scholarships are funded by tournament proceeds from the annual golf event, and Foundation ’45 Scholarships are awarded in recognition of the Foundation’s founding year, 1945. The Foundation also promotes the Brenda Renee Horn and Steve Mack Memorial Scholarships in partnership with the SCI National Scholarship Program. Upon the announcement of the scholarship recipients this month, the Funeral Service Foundation will have awarded nearly $660,000 in academic scholarship support to 267 outstanding students of funeral service since 2002. “Our academic scholarship program has grown exponentially in size and scope over the last two decades, because our donors and board believe that a solid education is the gateway to a fulfilling career in funeral service,” said Funeral Service Foundation Executive Director LeeWiensch, CAE, CFRE. “We look forward to impacting the educational experience of the next generation of funeral service leaders as we enter into a third decade of scholarship support.” Applications will be available in 2023 from February 1-April 15, and September 15-November 1. Those who have applied in the past but have not been awarded an academic scholarship from the Foundation are encouraged to re-apply. Since 1945, the Funeral Service Foundation has served as the philanthropic voice of the funeral profession and has identified as the charitable arm of the National Funeral Directors Association since 1997. Donors and volunteer leaders profession-wide support the Foundation in its mission of investing in people and programs to strengthen funeral service and lift up grieving communities.

LINCOLNSHIRE,IL— The Selected Educational Trust is pleased to announce the Fall Spring Cycle Second-Career Scholarship Program, sponsored by The Davis Whitehall Co. “We are so deeply grateful to Terry School and The Davis Whitehall Co for the generous support of this program,” said Stefanie Favia, Senior Director Development with the Selected Educational Trust. “The Trust has been privileged to have awarded 57 second-career scholarships totaling $75,000 to mortuary science students who have chosen to enter this time-honored profession as a second career! Without the support of our generous donors and sponsors, these scholarships would not be possible.” The Second-Career Scholarship Program is designed exclusively for individuals who aspire to work as a funeral director as a second-career. Scholarships are awarded in June and December of each year. According to Favia, “Many students entering this profession as a second-career are often mature adults with families and careers. But their personal goals include pursuing a career that is more fulfilling and satisfying than what they are currently doing. Scholarship funds are often not available to these second-career students. The Trust created this scholarship program specifically for individuals that are making a change in their career and, as such, will be change-makers in this profession.” The mission of the Selected Educational Trust is to provide the best educational opportunities for the advancement and support of all who work within the independent funeral service profession. To fulfill this mission, the Trust provides programs which offer scholarships to mortuary science students and funeral service professionals, education programs serving to bridge the gap between school and on-the-job training through its Institute for Exceptional Funeral Service (www.funeral-institute.org) and networking and employment opportunities through its Workforce Development Centers.
