The Spaulding Center for Active Living is accepting applications for the 2025 Hartley Lord Scholarship. According to a news release, “the scholarship is awarded to an outstanding student or individual who has chosen to pursue a degree or certification in a field that focuses on the well-being and needs of the senior members of our society.”

The Spaulding Center remains steadfast in its commitment to advance the well-being and quality of life for older adults, and the Hartley Lord Scholarship aims to recognize and empower students who demonstrate academic excellence and a passion for improving the lives of older adults.

With a focus on fields such as gerontology, social work, nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, healthcare administration, and related disciplines, the Spaulding Center seeks to award the Hartley Lord Scholarship to a future leader who will drive positive change in senior care and advocacy.

Interested applicants must submit the Hartley Lord Scholarship application, along with one letter of recommendation, to the center’s scholarship committee no later than June 1.

Applications can be found on the Community Outreach tab of the Spaulding Center website, seniorcenterkennebunk.org/hartley or by contacting Bridget Dempsey, 207-967-8514, director@seniorcenterkennebunk.org.
