When a worker is injured on the job, it doesn't just affect them. It impacts the entire family. We support the kids.
Our state organizations provide scholarships and support to the kids of workers who have been injured on the job.
“I would like to thank you for giving me this generous scholarship and the opportunity to continue my schooling at Eastern Michigan University.
I became eligible for this scholarship after I lost my dad in a roadwork accident in September of 2017. It was the day before my sophomore year and it was a struggle to continue.
I am now halfway through my junior year and this scholarship helped me pay for my books and contributed to my tuition. I am paying for college myself so this scholarship has impacted me immensely and helped me focus more on school.”
