The Kiwanis Club of Homestead-South Dade, one of South Florida’s most active community service organizations, is including technical and trade school scholarships — along with traditional college scholarships — as part of its annual scholarship program.
“We recognize the importance of technical and trade school education,” said Mia DeVane, chair of the Scholarship Committee. “The pandemic certainly emphasized the importance of skilled, trained tradespeople and we believe that high school seniors who want to learn a trade should have the opportunity to receive funds. Not everyone is focusing on college.”
This year, the club is expected to award several scholarships with a June 30 deadline for applying.
