"Heather Hererra has spent most of the last 13 years as a stay at home mom raising her girls in Mesquite. She worked in the family business, keeping the books, but always longed for something more. "I felt like a degree could take me places, I really ...didn't have a lot on my resume."
Hererra knew money for college would be tight, so she looked for scholarships. "At my age, it's a little hard to find scholarships that apply to me," she said. "I had mediocre grades in high school."
Then she found eLearners.com. The organization runs Project Working Mom, which awards scholarships for working moms who want to go back to school. "Read More

Free money for college! Does that get your attention? One organization is handing out cash to working moms in North Texas who want to go back to school. And in some cases the scholarships are worth tens of thousands of dollars.

Project Working Mom...and Dads, Too! Tomorrow (Saturday, October 31st) is the deadline to submit your application for the $4,000 scholarship for the month of October. November will be the last month we'll be offering a $4,000 scholarship because ... full-tuition scholarships will return in 2010!

Watch as five beautiful and intelligent moms pay a visit to the set of "The Tyra Banks Show" to learn who will be lucky recipient of a full-tuition scholarship to earn an online degree.

Project Working Mom...and Dads, Too! "When I got pregnant with my daughter, I realized then everything's got to change. I can't be flip-flopping whether I want to go to school or I want to work. When I found out I got this scholarship, it gave me the inspiration to want to do better."

April Davis I find it ironic that I needed to live and be a Mom before I figured out what I wanted to do with my life. I thought in High school that I would go into art. Now I find myself drawn to Mechanical Engineering. Now all I need to do is get a degree. Problem no money.
