At Smart Homefull, we want to support undergraduate students pursuing a variety of career choices and encourage them to think about how technology might help or hurt their career prospects long term. Students graduating into the world today will have to be constantly learning to keep up with new technologies and to stay relevant on their career paths and we hope this award will be a help them in their journeys. In an effort to contribute to the education of future college grads, we are proud to offer an annual $500 scholarship to individuals who are currently attending an accredited undergraduate university in the United States.
