Rethinking your scholarships is a group effort and it can be difficult to know where to begin. During this on-demand webinar, learn about the steps Julia Da Silva has already taken to rethink her foundation’s scholarship programs. Julia surveyed students, fund holders, and committee members – and, based off of feedback, has already made several changes to their programs – and plans to make more in the near future.
