Our House Annual Scholarship Fund

The Our House Scholarship Fund was established in 2006 to coincide with our Team Member Mission - "Our House fosters an environment of respect and integrity while providing opportunities to grow personally and professionally."

As valuable members of the Our House family, Our House designed the Scholarship to recognize one Team Member from each Our House location who is choosing to pursue a higher education in the health care profession through an accredited school.

We are excited to make this Scholarship available to one team member per Our House location as we believe the growth of our team members comes from continuing education and life long learning.
