Health plan participation
Giving back to the community
The Community Grants and Scholarships programs highlight the many ways that RTOERO members care about their communities and continue to serve them. Community grants fund local community-based projects, executed by districts in partnership with local organizations, that improve the lives of members and seniors. Post-secondary scholarships are awarded to students in programs that lead to careers in either seniors health and wellbeing; education; environmental stewardship; or that reflect a strong commitment to diversity, equity and/or inclusion.
