Applications for the Kindlund Family Scholarship are now available online through the Mike Molino RV Learning Center Scholarship Program. College undergraduates – that currently work in the RV industry or are a dependent of an RV industry employee, i.e. majoring in business, finance, engineering, accounting, or other RV Industry related fields – are eligible to apply.
The deadline to apply, with all required items submitted, is June 30.
A $2,500 award will be applied to the cost of tuition for the 2018 to 2019 school year. This will be the 28th scholarship provided under the program.
Dealers are encouraged to extend this opportunity to their dealership team because of their employment in the RV industry. Therefore, a primary factor for awarding the scholarship is an applicant’s background of RV industry employment or a desire to work in the RV business after completing post-secondary education.
