The Kevin Jennings Equality Winston-Salem Scholarship

The Equality Winston-Salem Scholarship was established in 2013 to provide scholarships for students who have shown leadership and vision in a Gay/Straight Alliance at their school or in the general LGBTQ community if no such alliance yet exists within their school.

Scholarship monies will be applied to the cost of undergraduate tuition, fees, room and board, and/or other college expenses.
