Michaels Educational Foundation Awards Over $2 Million in Resident Scholarships
The Michaels Organization Educational Foundation has awarded $2,135,500 in scholarships for the 2024/2025 academic year to 261 residents. This new record amplifies the foundation's mission of supporting educational pursuits within its affordable and military housing communities.
Operating since 1991, the foundation has now distributed more than $16 million in scholarships. This year's recipients include Virginia from Chicago, pursuing degrees in information technology and computer science, and returning scholars Alianah and Katelynn studying business analytics and nursing, respectively.
Scholarships are available to residents attending accredited colleges, universities, or vocational training programs. Funds are raised through contributions from The Michaels Organization's business network, with donations matched $2 for every $1 by the organization's founder, Michael J. Levitt, and his wife, Pat Levitt.
A separate program for residents of Michaels' student living communities will open later this year.
