MRA offers one of the best scholarships programs in Michigan and the nation. The families of members and the families of members’ employees are eligible annually for one-year scholarships of $1,500 (four-year colleges and universities) or $1,000 (two-year colleges and approved training schools and institutes). Scholarships are funded by Michigan Retailers Foundation. The annual competition runs from January 1 to April 1. Since 1999, the program has provided $544,500 in funding for 551 scholarships. The Foundation also enables contributors to establish a legacy scholarship in their name or the name of their business or another person.
