Scholarships for women offered by the
Novi Oaks Charter Chapter

Novi Oaks Charter Chapter has awarded scholarships every year since its founding in 1990. With the support of friends, family, and many area businesses, we normally award two $2,000 Impact Scholarships through the ABWA national Stephen Bufton Memorial Educational Fund (SBMEF) every year.

Our 2025 Scholarships and Grant application process is now closed as of May 1, 2025.

 

PLAN AHEAD! The full guidelines and instructions for applying for the 2025 scholarships may be downloaded by clicking the "download guidelines" button below. Guidelines for 2026 will be the same, and applications will open up on January 1, 2026.
