The Center for Global Education has several scholarship funds available to participants on its programs. For funds, participants must fill out a separate application form. Funds are small, so scholarships generally range from about $100 to $800 for a participant who qualifies for the fund’s purpose.
If you would like to make a gift to a scholarship fund, please make sure that you type the name of the fund in the "designation" line.
Mary Witt Scholarship Fund Purpose: The Mary Witt Scholarship Fund was established in 1987 in memory of Mary Witt, who was killed in a car accident several months after participating in a Center for Global Education travel seminar to Central America. The Center attached the fund to Mary's name because of her inspiring commitment to a more inclusive, just and peaceful world. The money in this small fund enhances opportunities for persons lacking sufficient personal resources, especially persons of color, to participate in Center for Global Education travel seminars and meet their counterparts in other countries who are working for social change. Funds are for people of color or for participants involved in grassroots work. Funds will also be considered for entire groups that are made up primarily of people or color or those working at the grassroots level.
