Pursuing higher education is a major achievement, but for many students, it also comes with significant financial challenges. Unexpected costs for dorm essentials, books, school supplies, food, and personal care items can create stress before classes even begin.

Registration is now open until July 1, 2026. As a registered scholar, you’ll receive essential items and have the opportunity to connect one on one with professionals through our Career Corner for advice, encouragement, and career insight. Lunch will be provided. YOU must be present to receive supplies, giveaways, and prizes. Need transportation? Email recruitment@henrosecares.org.
