APRO’s Education Foundation annually provides scholarships to rent-to-own professionals and their families. For more than a decade now, APRO members have contributed significantly to the Education Foundation’s Scholarship Fund, awarding 357 scholarships totaling $830,750 to help hundreds of students associated with the RTO industry pursue a college degree.
The Process
Since 2015, the APRO Charitable Foundation has used a third-party, independent panel of educators to review and score our annual scholarship applications. The judges are unaffiliated with any directors of the foundation board, APRO staff or scholarship applicants. Applications are sent to the judges who then read, review and score each applicant’s submitted materials based on the criteria outlined by the Foundation’s board of directors and as reflected on the application. APRO staff and the Charitable Foundation Board of Directors do not influence or determine who receives scholarships.2019 Scholarship Recipients

Thank You to Our Donors
Our scholarship program would not be possible without the generous support of donors throughout the year. The ongoing, consistent support of our Society for Tomorrow donors is the only way a program like this one can be sustained. Thank you for supporting others in pursuing their dreams through furthering their education. Thank you also to our state associations who participate and grant scholarships: Florida Rental Dealers Association, Kansas Rental Dealers Association, Missouri Rental Dealers Association and Tennessee Rental Dealers Association.
