Scholarships

One way that the Kathy Reticker Forum for Children and Families aims to increase awareness and advocacy for affordable, high quality child care and education for all children and families is through the awarding of four annual scholarships.  These scholarships memorialize Kathy’s commitment to the advancement of those who teach and care for young children.

Scholarships Offered

The Kathy Reticker Forum for Children and Families awards four annual scholarships, which are made possible through the generosity of our donors and sponsors:

Middlesex Community College:  two $1,000 scholarships annually to students enrolled in the Early Childhood Education programs at Middlesex Community College. Application information is available through the Middlesex Community College Foundation.  
Lowell High School: two $500 scholarships annually to graduating Lowell High School students pursuing an Early Childhood Education major. Application information is available through Lowell High School.
