FAUSA members are now eligible for education awards from The FAWCO Foundation. For details see the The FAWCO Foundation Education Awards Program Introduction.
Created by and for FAWCO clubs, the Awards Program recognizes and honors the academic excellence and all-around achievement of the children of FAWCO and FAUSA members as well as of FAWCO members themselves. FAWCO hopes to promote international understanding and good will by giving annual awards for study, in the US or abroad, at high school, undergraduate and graduate levels to these well educated, linguistically gifted and internationally- oriented children and adults. Therefore, every year the Foundation recognizes their unique gifts and honors their excellence by giving the best of them awards carrying grants to help them pursue education overseas and in the US.
Since the first award was given under the aegis of The Foundation in 1972, many hundreds of thousands of dollars have been given to over 150 recipients. Every year we adjust the program to funds available, and to the changing needs of members and members' children.
Who is Eligible? The Foundation Awards Program is open to all FAWCO club and FAUSA members and their children (grandchildren are eligible for the Dual Cultural Award), regardless of nationality and regardless of whether or not the affiliated Club has made a contribution to The Foundation’s programs. The children of the members of the Board of Directors of FAWCO, The FAWCO Foundation and FAUSA, as well as Directors themselves, however, are not eligible for awards.
