Rep. Laurie Halverson Encourages Eagan Students to Apply for Eagan Foundation Scholarships

Monday, February 18, 2013

St. Paul, Minnesota — State Representative Laurie Halverson (DFL – Eagan) is encouraging Eagan students to apply for one of the more than 110 Eagan Foundation scholarships totaling in excess of $94,000. These scholarships are now available to graduating high school seniors living in Eagan or attending Eagan High School. Applications will be accepted until 6 p.m. on February 28th, 2013.

“The Eagan Foundation is an excellent community organization and for over 20 years, they have been helping Eagan students pursue their dreams of higher education,” said Rep. Halverson. “I encourage students to apply for one of the many scholarships available. Thank you to the Eagan Foundation and its great donors for making this possible.”

Eligible students graduating in 2013 can complete an application on the Eagan Foundation’s website at www.eaganfoundation.org. Scholarship awards are based on a variety of donor-specified criteria including student financial need and/or career interest. There are also scholarships available that are not dependent on GPA, but recognize talented young individuals who have persevered through hardships in life, or have demonstrated strong community leadership.

All graduating high school seniors living in Eagan or attending Eagan High School are encouraged to apply. Questions may be directed to Board and Scholarship Chair Michael Proebstle at (651) 683-0000 or mproebstle@eaganfoundation.org.

Rep. Halverson encourages constituents to contact her with any comments, questions, concerns, or ideas on any legislative topic. Rep. Halverson can be reached by phone at 651-296-4128 or by email at rep.laurie.halverson@house.mn.
