Traub-dicker rainbow scholarship of stonewall community foundation

As tuition and other education-related costs have skyrocketed in the United States, funding a college education has become a daunting challenge, particularly for some woman-identified lesbians. To help address this concern, the Traub-Dicker Rainbow Scholarship (TDRS) was established in 2004 to encourage and support women-identified lesbians in their quest for higher education to help meet the student’s financial needs. A Traub-Dicker Rainbow Scholarship is to be used for tuition to a nonprofit college or university, and is paid directly to the recipient’s school. Multiple scholarships between $1,500 and $3,000 will be awarded in early summer 2018 and are non-renewable.
