The Jean Griswold Foundation is focused on caregivers and wants to support their goals. Applicants do not have to be associated with Griswold Home Care, and the funds will be paid directly to the institution where the caregiver will be receiving education. Stay tuned for information regarding the 2023 Scholarship Program launching on National Caregiver’s Day in February 2023, which promises to be even more rewarding!
