The Scripps Howard Fund grants support journalism education by giving students the tools and resources necessary to produce impactful work.
The Scripps Howard Fund is seeking innovative ideas to get post-secondary students from diverse backgrounds invested in journalism and foster environments where all journalism students can actively participate and feel welcome.
The purpose of these grants is to use experiential learning to:
- Advance equity, diversity and inclusion in student media, journalism education and the journalism pipeline while providing access to mentors and networks.
- Prepare students for professional and public challenges and pressures they may face as journalists of color or members of other under-represented groups.
- Foster connections and understanding between students from various backgrounds and institutions and equip students to deliver inclusive journalism that ensures all voices in a community are represented.
Special consideration will be given to proposals that offer experiential learning as an element of the project.
Eligibility Criteria
Universities and nonprofit organizations can apply for one-time grants of up to $30,000 to address this challenge. Only U.S. based programs are eligible.
