Veolia Sons and Daughters Scholarship Program
Deadline to apply: May 16, 2024 3:00 pm CT

Veolia North America has established a scholarship program to help finance higher education for children of its employees. As a company we believe in education and life-long learning, and we care about the future of our children and society. The Veolia Sons and Daughters Scholarship Program is a demonstration of this belief. Investing in higher learning is the best investment we can make.

The program is administered by Scholarship America®, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarships 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.

 

Veolia Amérique du Nord a mis en place un programme de bourses d’études pour aider à financer l’enseignement supérieur des enfants de ses employés. En tant qu’entreprise, nous croyons en l’éducation et l’apprentissage tout au long de la vie, et nous nous soucions de l’avenir de nos enfants et de la société. Le programme de bourses d’études Veolia Sons et Daughters est une démonstration de cette croyance. Investir dans l’enseignement supérieur est le meilleur investissement que nous pouvons faire.

Ce programme est administré par Scholarship America®, le plus grand concepteur et gestionnaire de bourses, d’aide à la scolarité et d’autres programmes de soutien à l’éducation pour les entreprises, les fondations, les associations et les particuliers. L’éligibilité aux programmes individuels est déterminée à la seule discrétion du sponsor, et les candidatures éligibles sont examinées par l’équipe d’évaluation de Scholarship America.
