A Special Day Honoring 12 Special Women

On Friday, June 8, over 200 guests came together at the City Club to honor Financial Women San Francisco’s (FWSF) 2018 scholarship recipients. Since the scholarship program began over 30 years ago, FWSF has awarded over $2.5 million to over 300 deserving women. Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and donors, this year FWSF increased the scholarships by $5,000 each, resulting in $10,000 for undergraduates and $15,000 for graduate students. The larger scholarships will be available for the next two to three years. Read more and view event photos.
