The Team Ellsworth Spouses Club is pleased to announce the winners of the 2019-2020 Scholarships and Career Enhancement Awards. Thanks to proceeds from the Thrift Shop, online auction fundraiser, and a special donation from First Command, 14 winners received scholarships ranging from $200 to $1,000. In lieu of a scholarship luncheon, we met each winner and delivered awards materials "publishers clearinghouse style" to celebrate their achievement. Awards are paid to universities following enrollment verification.
The scholarships are foundational to the TESC mission, and recognize the unique challenges and accomplishments of military families. This year we were especially proud to launch a career boost award for spouse professionals and small business owners. Our recipients truly reflect the best of the Ellsworth Community -- with dependents representing units across the base and retiree families.
Thank you to everyone for shopping and volunteering at the thrift store, contributing to the auction, and supporting the TESC. TOGETHER, we proudly contributed $7,000 to help military children and spouses pursue their goals. Please join us in congratulating the following recent grads and spouses:
