Educational Grants for Caregivers
Educational Grants for Caregivers
At Serengeti Care Foundation, we believe every caregiver deserves the chance to grow. Thatโs why we offer educational grants to cover the cost of essential certifications, including HCA (Home Care Aide), CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant), and LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse).
Caregivers can apply for each certification as they complete the previous one, and applications are reviewed on a monthly basis. Our goal is to open doors for professional growth, one step at a time.
