Looking For a Scholarship?

Dear Members:

Established to promote conservation leadership among future natural resource managers and professionals, the IWLA National Conservation Scholarship annually supports rising junior and senior college undergraduates from recognized conservation or environment-related degree programs.

Two scholarships, made possible by the Izaak Walton League of America Endowment, are currently available for the 2021-2022 school year. Applications are now being accepted, with a submission deadline of May 15 (postmarked).

Each scholarship category includes a $2,500 scholarship and a one-year IWLA Student membership. Applicants can be either:

A previous recipient of an IWLA chapter/ division scholarship, or
A son, daughter, grandson or granddaughter of a current IWLA member, or a current IWLA Student or Individual member (at the time of application submission)

Winners will be officially announced at this year’s IWLA National Convention. They will also be featured in the July edition of the Conservation Currents e-newsletter and in a future issue of Outdoor America magazine. We encourage you to reach out to those previous eligible chapter scholarship recipients as well as to members with children or grandchildren currently enrolled in conservation or environment-related undergraduate degree programs.

Get all the information about our scholarships and how to apply.
