Our Rotary Club recently presented $17,500 in Pivot Point Scholarships to seven students enrolled in nursing programs. The mission behind our Pivot Point Scholarships is to support positive and enduring change in the lives of lifelong learners. Pivot Point Scholarships are intended to support learners who are on a journey to reinvent their lives or make a career change. Not every student knows their path to a job and a career when they graduate from high school. For some graduates, life gets in the way with challenges that cause them to “pause” their education and/or change direction to follow a path to a new career. Most post-secondary scholarship programs do not consider the obstacles these non-traditional students face. Balancing childcare and multiple jobs to pay for their education and provide for their family is a struggle. That’s where the Columbus Rotary Pivot Point Scholarships can make a difference in the lives of these students and their families.
