Nancy Putnik was an employee at Sallie Mae for the past 15 years. The poor economy led to her layoff in 2009. After searching for a job she realized that she would need some additional training to be employable in this area. Most of the jobs are related to the medical field so Nancy decided to take classes in the Medical Administrative program. Nancy is more than half way through her program now, making all A’s and B’s. Were it not for the Haney Scholarship Foundation she would not have been able to continue her education.
