Mike Molino RV Learning Center Names Scholarship Recipient

FAIRFAX, Va. – Jewellissa French, office manager of World Wide RV with three locations in Arizona, has been chosen to receive the Mike Molino RV Learning Center Scholarship for academic year 2022-2023. Endowed through the Kindlund Family Foundation, the $2,500 award goes to a deserving RV industry employee or their dependent enrolled in undergraduate studies.

French started her career in the RV industry as a receptionist for RVDA member World Wide RV. Since then, she was promoted to title clerk and is now the office manager at the dealership. French currently has a 3.99 GPA in her undergraduate studies and plans on completing her Master of Business Administration degree at Arizona State University.

“Congratulations to Jewellissa as she is a future leader this scholarship is meant to recognize. Her hard work and dedication show in everything she does from interacting with our guests to managing accounts,” said David Skogebo, general manager of World Wide RV. “We are fortunate to have her on our team and look forward to seeing her contributions to the RV industry in her bright future.”

The Kindlund family, which endowed the scholarship program with $270,000, remains active in the RV industry even after selling its corporation, Holiday RV Superstores, in 1999. Newt Kindlund serves as Director Emeritus on the RV Learning Center Board of Directors. “This scholarship is one of the oldest in the industry and we are very proud to have established it over 20 years ago,” Kindlund said.

The Learning Center’s scholarship program recognizes deserving rising college sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Applicants are judged on their current RV industry involvement or their plan to seek employment in the industry upon graduation, academic achievement, extracurricular activities and honors, financial need, and a 500-word essay on their goals and objectives after college. The program has awarded $77,500 to 31 students since its inception in 2000.
