LANL Workforce Retirees’ Scholarship

Posted on by

The LANL Workforce Retirees’ Scholarship is an endowed scholarship fund managed by the LANL foundation.  It awards a $1000 scholarship annually.  The 2019 winner was Reuben Fresquez, an undergraduate in Computer Science at UNM.

Previously the Laboratory Retiree Group has forwarded contributions received to the Foundation.  To facilitate the process the LRG now asks that you contribute directly to the Foundation, specifying that your contributions go to the LANL Workforce Retirees’ Scholarship.

Instructions for donating through the Foundation website can be found on our Scholarship page.
