The Waub Ajijaak Leadership Scholarship is for those who have been dedicated to leadership, volunteerism, and community service. Culturally, leadership means different things based on your nation, traditional name, and clan or clans. We want to honor this as well as understand it is an ongoing process for many to reclaim their culture, knowledge of traditional lifeways, family stories, and community connections.
The Waub Ajijaak Press Leadership Scholarship is for Native American, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian students who are enrolled at tribal colleges, universities, or other accredited schools. You have to be attending or plan to attend a college in Michigan.
Each student will be awarded $2,000 per academic school year ($1,000 per fall and spring semesters only).
