EDUCATION FUNDING ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS

The Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Society recognizes that our staff members are a valuable asset to this organization. Through our educational fund programs, the Society has an opportunity to invest in our staff members. Desired outcomes for this investment include:
**Retain and recruit employees
**Develop and engage employees
**Sustain effective performance
**Achieve higher levels of employee satisfaction, engagement and loyalty
**Encourage opportunities for succession planning

We also recognize that employees who challenge themselves to grow and develop through educational opportunities are making an investment in their future with their time, energy and finances. We encourage employees to reach toward their potential in this way, and to commit to joining us in carrying out our mission.

Staff Education Loan or Scholarship
Good Samaritan Society centers in any state may provide loans or scholarships to employees for education purposes. Programs and policies may vary by center. The Society employee must first contact his or her administrator to discuss eligibility.

The Hoeger Scholarship and Loan Program was established by The Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Foundation in 2001 to provide, with support of the employee's center, up to two-thirds the cost to earn a degree to become a registered nurse. In 2007 the program was expanded to provide financial assistance for employees working to earn their LPN diploma through Lake Area Technical Institute. The Society employee must first contact his or her administrator to discuss eligibility. This program is not available in the state of Minnesota.
