AWIS Educational Foundation

Do you want to honor the memory of a special mentor or colleague? Do you want to recognize a special celebration (graduation, birthday, professional award)? One of the fellowship awards of the AWIS Educational Foundation can be "named" to honor a particular person, living or deceased.  For a one-time award, $1,000 is required. Multiples of 1000 allow for a multi-year award.  For all named awards, a brief biographical paragraph about the honoree is posted on the web site as well as included in the award letter to the recipient.
