Junior League of Champaign-Urbana, Women building better communities

Student Scholarships

The Junior League of Champaign-Urbana is an organization of women committed to promoting voluntarism, developing the potential of women and improving communities through the effective action and leadership of trained volunteers.

With that in mind, each year we recognize the spirit of voluntarism in Champaign-Urbana high school graduating female students through our scholarship program.  A scholarship in the amount of $500 is offered to one female graduating senior from each Champaign-Urbana high school who has demonstrated a strong committment to voluntarism.

Also, as the Junior League is committed to promoting fair and equal opportunities for women, one female recipient who is a first generation college-bound student will be chosen from all the Champaign-Urbana high schools to receive a $500 scholarship.

Applications can be submitted online or, if you have difficulty, you can email your submission to Katie Madigan at katieslp11@hotmail.com with a subject line of "Scholarship Submission, your name".  Scholarship winners will be announced by Thursday, May 9, 2013.

This year's Application Deadline is Monday, April 22, 2013.
