Washington Media Scholars Foundation (WMSF) was established in 2009 with a simple mission—to make sure that students seeking careers in media could get the support they need to graduate from college and enter the fields of media and policy. For 13 years, WMSF has supported students because of the generous donations from the country’s top media companies.
WMSF’s supporters have made sure that we could continue to help students stay in school by fueling scholarships and offering valuable connections that led to internships and jobs. If your company has already given in 2023, thank you. If your company has not yet given this year but would like to make a contribution, we welcome your generosity!
