UFCW 227 Foundation
Child Care Scholarship

We are excited to announce a new scholarship for UFCW 227 members to get reimbursed for child care expenses! Being a working parent is hard and our union family is here to support you.

Annual Awards

  • Twice a year, ten UFCW 227 members will be selected for awards of $750 in June and December.

  • Deadlines to apply are: May 23, 2025 and November 21, 2025.

  • If your application is not selected in June, it will be considered in December. You may, however, submit a new, updated application if your family/living circumstances change.
