AWC Advancement Donations

Each year the AWC Seattle Chapter awards a scholarship to an outstanding college Junior or Senior who is majoring in Communications at a Washington state college or university. This has been a tradition for well over 50 years and we hope to continue to do so with support from generous donors like yourself. Thank you.

Richards, longtime AWC member, former AWC Tulsa president, Saidie Lifetime Achievement honoree and Chapter Super Star honoree.
