Jeannette Rankin Women's Scholarship Fund

Empowering Women Through Education.

Since 1976, the Jeannette Rankin Women's Scholarship Fund has been committed to empowering women to shine through education! We have provided more than $3 million in scholarships to more than 1,000 women all across the United States! We are working to provide a hand-up to women who are in pursuit of their post-secondary education, and with this we are seeing incredible success.

Over the last 42 years, 65% of JRF Scholars have completed their post-secondary degree! We are so impressed with the capabilities of these women, and their commitment to their educations. In comparison, the national graduation rate for this demographic is only 31%.


For the 2018-2019 academic year, 91% of JRF Scholars either graduated or continued on towards their degrees! This is a record number of Scholars persisting towards and completing their degrees!
