In recent years, SHARE families have consistently been represented among the winners. In 2020, Liam Foskett was awarded one of the scholarships. (Liam’s mother Nancy is a SHARE member in the HIM Department.) The Scholarships are typically awarded during the annual Central Massachusetts Labor Day Breakfast. However, since the breakfast was cancelled last year for social distancing reasons, SHARE Organizer Carol Hehir took the celebration on the road.
The SHARE office recently received the following notice from Joe Carlson, President of the Central Massachusetts AFL/CIO, about a really great scholarship opportunity for members. The lottery for these scholarships will be open to any SHARE members, as well as children and grandchildren of our members, who will graduate from high school this year and attend college next year.

We’d love to see another SHARE winner this year. Good luck!
