Scholarship Opportunities

One of the greatest benefits to those members in school or with dependents in school is exclusive access to various scholarships.

A plethora of scholarships are available through WNGEA, EANGUS and the EANGUS Auxiliary.  For instance, WNGEA offers up to five grants in the amount of $500 each, and one grant of $1,000, (known as the Raymond A. Matera Scholarship).   Depending on available funds additional Scholarsips may be available. 
 
USAA provides the Wisconsin National Guard Enlisted Association with an additional $1,000 dollar scholarship each year.
