2024/2025 Project COURAGE Scholarship Recipients
Please join us in congratulating our 2024/2025 Project COURAGE scholarship recipients! Seven students and professionals from HBCUs were selected by the Project COURAGE Advisory Panel and will attend prominent industry events such as the Emerging Recreational Sports Leaders Conference (ERSL) at Howard University and the NIRSA 2025 Annual Conference.
The application for Project COURAGE's second scholarship season has closed. The scholarship application will open again in 2025.
"Providing scholarships has given recipients opportunities to experience events most could only dream of. Listening to one of the recipients speak to her classmates concerning the exposure she received, all because of Project COURAGE, has permanently and positively impacted her life."
