Scholarships

Our scholarship application is taking a slight turn in 2024. We are focusing our giving on three categories, so sort of blown up Go Your Own Way effort! Take a gander at the categories below. There is a single application form for all three options. If your request falls into multiple categories, just go ahead and pick your favorite. Applications will be open until November 4th.

ADVENTURE
A trip, equipment, or experience that is out of reach without financial support. Examples are a guided trip up the Grand, or funding towards a film that someone wants to produce, or outdoor adventure gear to begin to enjoy a new pursuit. 

CAREER ADVANCEMENT
A course or certification that helps a woman further their career goals in outdoor pursuits. Examples might be Pro level avalanche courses, a WFR course…

EDUCATION
This for anyone who would like to enjoy the mountains safer and with more knowledge. Examples might include Avy 1, mountain bike courses, WFA course, or climbing courses to improve skills.  

Be creative and get dreamin’!

Examples of past scholarships:
