About Project Working Mom 2010
Through Project Working Mom 2010, eLearners.com will be a catalyst for communities to come together to help establish much-needed resources for the working mother population. eLearners.com has found three barriers associated with moms returning to school—time, money and confidence.

In this effort, eLearners.com is establishing:
- An online resource center for moms and dads to find camaraderie, information, scholarships, advice and other resources to facilitate educational pursuits
- A political agenda to raise federal awareness and financial aid
- A support and scholarship effort leveraging eLearners.com's contacts with the higher education community

Hi, Do you give scholarships to single working moms who would like to pursue a Masters degree?

Is there an age limit to the scholarship program, and what if I am not working because of economy related layoff?
Project Working Mom On Tuesday, April 27 2010
@M Grey: No, there is no age limit. Even if you are currently unemployed, you are still eligible to apply.

I am a middle aged working woman who raised 3 children as a single mom. My kids are all grown, but I do want to go back to school to do something I always wanted, but never could afford.

Hello - I am a working mom with 2 toddlers. I make a decent income but my older son has special needs and all of our income goes towards his medical treatments. Now I want to go back to business school to get business credentials but we cannot afford it. Are there any scholarships that can help me ?

Project Working Mom On Thursday, June 10 2010
@Tameika: You can apply, but if you are awarded a scholarship, you'd have to transfer to the Project Working Mom sponsor school who is awarding the scholarship. No GPA requirement.
