The SecureCare65 Scholarship

About Our Scholarship

At SecureCare65, our goal is to provide seniors currently on, or approaching Medicare with the educational materials  and guidance that they’ll need to make well informed, educated decisions regarding the selection of their Medicare insurance coverage.

Early on, along this educational path, seniors discover that coverage for Long Term Care (Home Health & Nursing Home Care) under the federal Medicare program is very limited, and private LTC insurance is very expensive.  Therefore, As students begin to navigate the world after graduation, planning for the future care of their parents and older loved ones can become a top priority and primary concern.

We are offering a scholarship to one undergraduate student who can best express in words, their thoughts regarding the planning for the future of their loved ones, in an engaging written piece.
