NPC to Match Scholarship Funds

Have you made your donation to the Press Club of Southwest Florida Scholarship Fund?

Do so now so that your donation will be doubled!
The MATCHING FUNDS NPC Journalism Scholarship offer continues!

Your donation will be matched by a generous anonymous donor!

Since the Matching Funds offer began in June, Press Club of Southwest Florida members have donated $1,525 to the NPC Scholarship Fund! The anonymous donor, who is matching the donated funds, will donate up to $2,000 for the Press Club of Southwest Florida Journalism Scholarship Fund. Help us get to that total; we need only $475 but will happily accept more!

No gift is too small—$5, $25, $50—it all adds up.

Please send your checks, made out to “Champions for Learning” with “NPC Scholarship Fund” in the memo line, to: Connie Kindsvater, NPC Scholarship Chairman, 1345 Remington Way #4202, Naples, FL 34110

You will receive a tax deduction letter from Champions for Learning (formerly the Education Foundation-Collier County), a 501 (c) 3 charitable organization which holds our NPC Scholarship Fund monies, thanking you for your donation to the NPC Scholarship Fund.

The Press Club of Southwest Florida is currently supporting 10 NPC Journalism Students at 8 colleges/universities: Rollins College (1 student), Florida Atlantic University (1 student), FGCU (1 student), Florida International University-Miami (1 student), University of Central Florida (1 student), University of Florida (3 students), University of South Florida (1 student), Wartburg College, Iowa (1 student).

Each student received a $1,000 NPC Journalism Scholarship for the 2018-19 academic year. Funds will be needed to support the students for the 2019-20 year, too, plus any new scholarship students who are chosen.

YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT MAKES A DIFFERENCE!

Your donation will help support the next generation of journalists.
That is part of the Mission Statement for the Press Club of Southwest Florida.
Your support is greatly valued and appreciated!
