2025 DWPA Scholarship Information

The Democratic Women of the Prescott Area (DWPA) are offering a total of five individual $1,000 scholarships to promising high school and college students to be used for the upcoming academic year. Our goal is to encourage young people to become active contributors to our society, working to make the future brighter for everyone. We offer at least one scholarship to a qualified DACA recipient.

To qualify, the student must be a senior attending public instruction within the Quad City Area (Prescott, Chino Valley, Prescott Valley, Dewey-Humboldt, Mayer) or a graduate of the same for the most recent prior academic year, or a current college student. Scholarships are not gender based. We hope to encourage students who are struggling or have overcome obstacles in their lives, and who devote time to community service when possible. Letters of Recommendation that address those efforts are most appreciated and helpful.

If the applicant is over 18 years old, (s)he must be a registered Democrat. If under 18, at least one parent/grandparent/guardian must be a registered Democrat. This requirement does not apply to DACA recipients.

Students can also access the application HERE. A completed application with the listed documents is required for consideration. Applications must be received by March 10, 2025.

We look forward to receiving applications from students who meet our qualifications. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Thank you,
