The eQuality Scholarship Collaborative honors and encourages northern and central California students for their service to the lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender community by providing scholarships for post-secondary education at approved institutions. In 2007, the Collaborative awarded $61,000 to 12 courageous students. In 2008, the Collaborative will award at least ten $5,000 scholarships.
In addition to its own scholarships, the Collaborative administers two other scholarships:
The Collaborative is the joint effort of a group of individuals and organizations based in the San Francisco Bay Area (see list at left). It began in 1989 as a scholarship program by Pacific Gas and Electric Company's lesbian and gay employee association, now PG&E PrideNetwork. The following year, the Bay Area Network of Gay and Lesbian Educators - now Ally Action - joined the effort. Additional members have joined the Collaborative over the years, and more are always welcome. The Collaborative is an all-volunteer effort, keeping administrative costs low. |
