Altrusa International of Hermiston is now accepting applications for a $3,500 scholarship.
The Altrusa Foundation Scholarship is for those seeking to gain or upgrade job skills or to re-enter the job market. It is not for graduating high school seniors.
The purpose of the scholarship is to help students who are approximately two-thirds through a post-high school program, and for students currently enrolled in the program when the scholarship is awarded. Applicants may re-apply annually.
Applicants must be residents of Western Umatilla County or North Morrow County, but may be studying elsewhere.
The deadline to apply is Oct. 1. Applications may be found online.
