The number of scholarships awarded by the AAUW Georgetown Branch each year, and the scholarship amounts, depend on our fundraisers. Read more about our scholarship program.
- Jesse Daniel Ames Scholarships are funded by the branch through fundraising in the community.
- W.D. Kelley Foundation Fellows are funded through generous donations from the W.D. Kelly Foundation. We are honored by our long-term partnership with the W.D. Kelley Foundation on our scholarship program and appreciate the Foundation’s support for local high school graduates!

Congratulations to this year’s scholars! (Photo credit: C. Kavadas)
