Kohler Co. has established a scholarship program to recognize the importance of education and to provide support to students in Sheboygan County from diverse backgrounds who plan to continue their education in college. At Kohler Co., we embrace diversity, celebrate inclusion, and uphold equity for all.
The program is administered by Scholarship America®, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarship and other education support programs for corporations, foundations, associations, and individuals. Eligibility for individual programs is determined at the sole discretion of the sponsor, and eligible applications are reviewed by Scholarship America’s evaluation team.
Applicants to the Kohler BOLD Scholarship Program must:
Awards
If selected as a recipient, the student will receive a $5,000 award. Up to five (5) awards will be granted.
