Since
1993, over $1 million in scholarships has been awarded to high
school women. Multiple scholarships of $2,500 and $15,000 are
awarded each year and may be applied to tuition and expenses
at any accredited 2- or 4-year college or university. Application
is open to young women who are members of a Girls
Inc.® affiliate.
This program was renamed in 1997 when Lucille Miller Wright,
a long-time supporter of Girls Inc., made a bequest from her
estate to fund scholarships expressly for young women members.
The purpose of the Scholars Program is to make post-secondary
education more accessible by offsetting the financial costs.
Our goal is to inspire members to succeed in school and to consider
a broad range of career possibilities.
