Trade scholarships available for the 202324 academic year

An anonymous donor in our community has created two trade school and/or cosmetology school scholarship opportunities, up to $5,000 each, to go towards the 2023-24 academic year.

Not every student who advances into higher education signs up for a four-year curriculum. Some high school graduates seek job training that lasts a year or two and then places them in the workforce. Such opportunities include, but are not restricted to: Information Technology, Construction, Industrial, Transportation and Horticulture. It is not too late to apply for this upcoming school year!

Qualified students who have unmet needs regarding tuition for either a two-year trade school program or a trade certificate program can contact the Jewish Press at avande kamp@jewishomaha.org or jpress@jewishomaha. org for more information.

In its Aug. 18, 1921, edition, the Jewish Press announced it joined the National Jewish Press Association “for the purpose of giving the entire Jewish Press a reliable news service and generally bringing those connected with Jewish publications closer together. The new organization, which has its offices in New York, is the result of many leading Jewish newspapermen who have long been planning some institution which should serve the whole Jewish Press and enable those interested in Jewish publications to cooperate in all those directions in which cooperation is possible.”
