Earl Haas Scholarship

The Earl Haas Scholarship was established through a bequest from the estate of Earl Haas. The purpose of the fund is to provide financial assistance for Kalamazoo County residents or persons who have graduated from a school within Kalamazoo County. This is a one-time, non-renewable scholarship award that provides at least $1,000 to students pursuing associate degrees, bachelor's degrees, or vocational/trade certifications. The scholarship is open to both high school seniors and current undergraduate students enrolled full-time or part-time. Recipients must demonstrate financial need and have a connection to Kalamazoo County either through residency or having graduated from a high school within the county. Scholarship payments are sent directly to the educational institution and can be applied to any items under the school's cost of attendance, including tuition, fees, housing, transportation, food, and health insurance.
