The Gallatin Canyon Women's Club Scholarship Fund was established in 1977 to commemorate the Club's fiftieth anniversary. Money for the fund comes from member donations. The scholarship is intended to be merit-based. Financial need is not a consideration; however, preference may be given to, but not restricted by, financial need. There are no constraints on race, ethnicity, birth, country, religion, gender or disabilities.
GCWC is pleased to now offer our annual Scholarship through the Friends of Big Sky Education (FOBSE), a 501(c)(3) organization. This change was approved at our 2015 Annual Meeting. Members have three ways to donate (all amounts contributed directly to FOBSE are tax-deductible) - 1. Online at FOBSEdonate.org - Click on "2. Contribute to a scholarship already established" and then select the GCWC Scholarship from the drop down box titled "Select a Scholarship". 2. Send a check directly to FOBSE at PO Box 160633, Big Sky, MT 59716 (please indicate GCWC on the memo line). 3. Include a second check payable to FOBSE with your registration form.
Congratulations to Madison Rager - our 2020 FOBSE recipient
The Gallatin Canyon Women's Club is very proud of our history of supporting worthy organizations in the Big Sky/Gallatin Canyon/Bozeman area. Members donate to the GCWC Philanthropy Fund and each fall the money collected is distributed to area organizations. The GCWC 2020 Philanthropy Fund totaled $7100. Thank you members!
