The AAUW Redding Branch has been awarding scholarships since 1948.  When Shasta Community College opened its doors in 1951, the branch decided to award our scholarships to Shasta Community College women graduates who had completed their AA Degrees to help them continue their education.  

In 2023, our applicant pool was broadened to include:

-Part-time students at Shasta Community College 

-Women completing their AA Degrees, or the equivalent, and continuing on to an accredited, approved certificate program, such as Nursing, Physical Therapist, Ultra-Sound Tech, Dental Hygienist, or Respiratory Therapist.  

It should be noted that many of our scholarships have gone to high school and college students who were the first in their families to attend college, and our branch is extremely proud of that achievement.  

We are also proud of the fact that our branch has awarded more than 450 scholarships totaling more than $300,000 to deserving women and girls.
