REEDLEY, Calif.–Mennonite Insurance announces the scholarship winners for 2023.
Mennonite Insurance Services is excited to announce the recipients of the 2023 Scholarship.
Students must be members of an Anabaptist church, be at least a junior at a West Coast college or university and have a GPA of 3.0 or better.
Our first scholarship recipient is Jessica Manning.
She is a member of Rosedale Bible Church in Bakersfield, CA and attends The Master’s University. She tells us “My goal is to become the owner of a mobile dog-grooming business. I am currently earning a degree in business management so that I will have the knowledge necessary to run a business. I plan to get a full-time job as a groomer so that I can accrue knowledge of grooming the various types of animals that I plan to offer services for in my own business. Once I have gathered the necessary experience, I will begin launching my own business.”
Our second scholarship recipient is Sam Nofziger from Seattle Mennonite Church, Seattle WA.
He is a senior studying International Studies and attends George Fox University. Nofziger states “I love the study of economics and its intersection with public policy. I want to do something to help provide access to housing and healthcare for Americans.”
“It’s great to be able to help our recipients reach their educational goals. It’s very rewarding for us to have small role in their success,” said Claudia Fletes, Mennonite Aid Plan’s scholarship administrator.
Each recipient receives a $1,000 scholarship. Application forms and scholarship rules are available at mennoniteinsurance.com or on the Mennonite Insurance Facebook page.
Mennonite Insurance Services and its parent, Mennonite Aid Plan, provide property insurance to churches and their members on the West Coast.
