Operation Homefront and the Women’s Self Worth Foundation are pleased to announce the Saban Military Spouse Educational Scholarship.

The scholarship award is offered to wives of uniformed service members to attend vocational training programs in the medical field. Fifteen $8,500 scholarships and five $10,000 scholarships will be awarded for tuition for vocational training in one of the following fields: dental assistant, medical assistant, medical billing and coding specialist, medical insurance technician, patient care assistant/ technician, nurse assistant training program, or medical transcription. Two $30,000 scholarships will be awarded for tuition for vocational nursing programs.

“Operation Homefront is committed to providing assistance to the families of military service members, and our partnership with the Women’s Self Worth Foundation gives us another opportunity to help military wives reach for their dreams to improve themselves and provide a better life for their families,” said Jim Knotts, President & CEO of Operation Homefront.

“Military wives face challenging circumstances – many are forced to relocate frequently and raise children with little support while their spouses are deployed,” said Cheryl Saban “these scholarships will provide women with the opportunity to develop careers in a highly in demand field and in doing so, will make a major impact on their lives and the lives of their families and communities.”
