GFWC Florida Scholarship Program

The GFWC Florida Federation of Women’s Clubs (GFWC Florida) has a long history of supporting education. During her 2012-2014 administration, GFWC Florida President Pat Zazzarino established a
scholarship program, with two goals: to raise funds for scholarships, and to award them to women needing assistance for education to achieve their goals of becoming self-sufficient through gainful
employment. GFWC Florida will award scholarships to women returning for education to attain these stated goals. The application and reference forms are available on our website: gfwcflorida.org.
