Donate to the FWA Scholarship Fund .......................
The FWA Scholarship Fund has been awarding scholarships since 1985.
In that time, the fund has contributed to the future of
women in finance by awarding over $1.65 million in scholarship grants
to more than 190 Bay Area who show promise as future financial
leaders.
"The FWA has impacted my life in several positive ways. The scholarship
program allowed me focus more on final semesters at San Jose
State University. The mentor program linked me to an excellent mentor who is
helping me with the transition from school to career. Finally, the FWA events have allowed me to meet some very impressive and
inspiring women."
