Applications for the Mike Molino RV Learning Center College Scholarship Program must be submitted by July 5. The application is available online.
The scholarship is available for undergraduates currently employed in the RV industry, who are dependents of an RV industry employee, and to those seeking a career in the RV industry after graduating. The $2,500 scholarship will be applied to the cost of tuition for the 2023-2024 school year.
The program will award its 32nd scholarship this year. The program is funded by Joanne and Newt Kindlund, co-founders of Holiday RV Superstores, the first publicly traded RV dealership. Newt Kindlund remains an active participant in RV industry affairs and is a director emeritus on the Learning Center’s board of directors.
Dealers are encouraged to tell their employees about the scholarship. A primary factor is an applicant’s background in RV industry employment or a desire to work in the RV industry after college.
