Scholarships

Stepping in when it matters most

Severe workplace injuries and illnesses can leave an employee unable to continue their career, or in the case of catastrophic accidents, leave surviving family members without the financial support to pursue education. When this happens, we help forge a new future through education and opportunity.

The Texas Mutual scholarship program is an exclusive benefit to Texas Mutual-covered injured workers and their families. Applicants could receive up to $6,600 for school expenses (e.g., tuition, fees, books and supplies).

"I am able to impact all of these children because Texas Mutual
has been able to support me."

Who is eligible?

Injured employees

Injured employees of Texas Mutual policyholders whose injuries qualify them for lifetime benefits may be eligible. Lifetime benefits are outlined under Section 408.161 of the Texas Workers' Compensation Act.

Dependents

  • Was employed by a Texas Mutual policyholder
  • Died as a result of a compensable work-related accident OR has injuries that qualify them for lifetime benefits

Children must be unmarried, between the ages of 16 and 25, and eligible for workers' compensation benefits. Surviving spouses (in cases of workplace fatalities) must be unmarried and eligible for workers' compensation benefits.
