2012 Haworth Scholarships
At Haworth, we cultivate hope for our future by investing in people, education, and our communities. Every year we offer several scholarships to the members of our communities, children, spouses, and eligible dependents of the Haworth North America and Groupe Lacasse sectors.
In an effort to support our sustainability initiatives this year, the application process will be paperless and collected electronically via Scholarships@Haworth.com.
Scholarship application forms are available to download below, and also under the Librarian tab at the top of Hometown's home page. Applications are due via e-mail by Friday, March 2, 2012. Recipients will be notified in late April.

Haworth at a glance
Family and privately-owned since 1948, we like to think of ourselves as more Main Street than Wall Street, offering a personal
touch on a global platform. We’ve grown organically, from the ground up, remaining true to our roots. And after all, what
business feels more organic than a family business?
