Spherion Staffing Offers Scholarship Opportunity

/in , , /by

Spherion’s franchisee-funded Sandy Mazur Excellence in Leadership scholarship awards funds to outstanding students who wish to further their education with college, technical, or skilled training. Last year, we awarded two $5,000 scholarships. In 2025, we will award at least two scholarships of $5,000 or more.

This scholarship honors the contributions of past Spherion president Sandy Mazur and recognizes students who best represent the excellence and passion Sandy displayed during her distinguished 16-year tenure as president of Spherion.

The Spherion franchise community, led by franchise owners Michael Chalmers and Beth DeLaney, funds the scholarship and promotes it to potential applicants. The Ohio-based nonprofit Richland County Foundation collects the online applications. With names and locations removed, Spherion’s franchise community reviews the applicants and selects the winner. The Richland County Foundation disburses the scholarship grants.

Application information and links are here. The scholarship application will be available for online submission through 11:59 pm CDT on April 30, 2025.
