Holy Cross Health will host the annual TransEd Scholarship Awards on August 7 from 5:30 to 8 PM at their brand-new Family Health Center. Now in its second year, TransEd’s scholarship program uplifts transgender and non-binary young adults aged 18 to 34 by supporting their educational journeys.
This year, four scholarships totaling $12,500 will be awarded, including a special $2,500 scholarship sponsored by Unity on the Bay. Scholarships will include tutoring, learning materials, transportation, and new computers. Applications, including a short video introduction, are open until June 23 at TransEd.org.
TransEd is led by a passionate team: Franchesca D’Amore, our Founding President; Julianna Giordano, our Secretary; and me, Von Biggs, a Founding Board member and Treasurer. Together, Holy Cross and TransEd are creating a more inclusive future—one scholarship at a time. Hotspots Happening Out and Queer News Tonight is celebrating 30 Days of Pride by promoting 16 dazzling events in the LGBTQ community. So stay tuned.
