Many of the activities FBPW supports generate funds for local student scholarships.
Without question advanced education is the key for increased skills and salaries
and advanced careers. This is particularly a necessity for women in order to have
the same earning power of men, adding economic security for themselves and their
families. FBPW helps build that individual's foundation for a prosperous future.
Additionally, scholarship winners share their essays with us at one of our meetings,
which allow them to build confidence before a group. It also extends great pride
to their families and reinforces the Committee's commitment in helping support the
next generation and the community in which we live.
The Scholarship Committee is involved with developing criteria, creating a
nomination form, selecting winners, presenting the award, and submitting newspaper
articles. Contact the Committee Chair for further details.
