William Randolph Hearst Endowed Scholarship for Minority Students

Between $2,500 and $5,000

The Nonprofit Sector Research Fund, a grantmaking program of the Aspen Institute, annually offers the William Randolph Hearst Endowed Scholarship. Through this program, the fund seeks to introduce a diverse group of students to issues relating to philanthropy, voluntarism, and nonprofit organizations. The scholarship, which is based on academic excellence and need, is open to both undergraduate and graduate students who are members of minority groups. The Hearst Scholar serves as a summer intern with the fund. In his or her summer internship, the Hearst Scholar undertakes general research and program support for the fund's grantmaking and outreach efforts. Recipients may arrange with their colleges or universities to receive academic credit for this experience. Visit the fund's website for complete program information and application guidelines.
