The McChord Officers Spouses' Club (OSC), as part of their welfare program each year awards scholarships to graduating high school students who are dependents of both military and/or civilians at McChord Field and dependent spouses of both military members and/or civilians at McChord Field as defined in scholarship guidelines. Members of this club volunteer countless hours supporting fund-raising events and services that benefit the McChord AFB Community.
The purpose of the McChord Community Scholarship program is to identify, recognize, and reward outstanding young men and women graduating from our area high schools and spouses who are pursuing Bachelor degrees or a vocational certificate. Our program was established to aid the continued education of students who have demonstrated the highest personal and intellectual qualities through their superior academic performance. These applicants have also participated in and have led extracurricular and community activities, volunteered, trained and/or held outside of school employment.
