Scholarships

InterPride grants a limited number scholarships to member organizations to those in need of financial assistance to attend the AGM. The funds assist in the cost of approved conference expenses and in return, the delegate must attend workshops, plenarys and provide a written report to be sent back to the Board.

The Pam O'Brien Memorial Scholarship Fund

The Pam O'Brien Memorial Scholarship Fund was established many years ago to help financially challenged organizations attend the Annual World Conference. Over the years dozen of Pride organizations have received the benefit of networking and learning from seasoned Pride organizers from around the world.

This opportunity is only made possible only through the generosity of individuals and member organizations. We are very grateful to the donations that are received every year. It is an important benefit of membership in InterPride.

The Scholarship application is being revised this year and is in the final stages. It is our hope to have it available in the next few weeks. The application is available to all current paid members of InterPride and will be sent to all of the Regional Directors and posted on the InterPride website www.interpride.org

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the scholarship co-chairs at scholarship@interpride.org
