Richmond women looking to further their education and broaden career opportunities can benefit from a scholarship named for local women’s rights advocate Ethel Tibbits.

Tibbits was also a pioneering newspaper editor and owner. The scholarship was originally established by the Richmond Review and is awarded annually by the Richmond Community Foundation.

Applicants must have lived in Richmond for at least one year, and demonstrate financial need. They can be entering a training program, or attending classes to upgrade their skills or credentials. In both cases, the scholarship can help cover tuition fees and course materials.

The application deadline is April 8. For more information or to apply, click here.
