Scholarships and Sponsorships

The Virginia Ray Randall Scholarship was established to recognize Virginia Ray Randall's development of the Cultural Series for our local AAUW branch. The scholarship is awarded annually to a female student in the field of art, dance, literature, music, or theater who is attending Sussex County Community College.  The award may be applied toward tuition, books, or other expenses.

Each year, the branch president attends the Sussex County Community College Scholarship Awards Ceremony to give the selected recipient the scholarship monies from AAUW Sussex County (NJ) Branch.
