DAVIS-PUTTER SCHOLARSHIP FUND: STUDENT ACTIVIST SCHOLARSHIP
Since 1961, the Davis-Putter Scholarship Fund has provided need-based grants to graduate or undergraduate student activists who are able to do academic work at the college level and are involved in building the movement for social and economic justice. They must be enrolled in an accredited school for the time period covered by their grant. Applicants need not be U.S. citizens but must live in the U.S. and plan to enroll in an accredited program in the U.S. There is a strong preference for grantees who plan to stay in the United States and build the progressive movement here. Information about the Davis-Putter Scholarship Fund, the application process, and the students we support, can be found on our website: www.davisputter.org Students should return to the website in January when applications will be available for the next academic year. Early recipients fought for civil rights, against McCarthyism, and for peace in Vietnam. More recently, grantees have been active in the struggle against racism, sexism, homophobia, and other forms of oppression: building the movement for economic justice; and creating peace through international anti-imperialist solidarity.How to Apply   http://www.davisputter.org/apply.html
