Winter Haven Scholarship Fund
About the fund
Established by members of First Christian Church, Winter Haven, Florida, as part of their mission to support causes that are important to their congregation, The Winter Haven Scholarship Fund annually distributes money, based on available earnings and need, for the purpose of financial scholarships to students who are:
- Members of the Christian church (Disciples Of Christ);
- Preparing for employment in Ordained Christian ministry;
- Attending an ATS-accredited seminary/divinity school;
- Second or Third career seminary students;
The intent of this fund is to help support seminarians who have previously had prior careers in secular work, but who are now going back to school to prepare for, and fulfill, a Call to vocational ministry. If applicable, students should mention how they are second or third career students in the general application form. Recipients must meet all other general requirements for the DHM scholarship program.
