ABOUT THE SCHOLARSHIP
Open to undergraduate students in The Robertson School of Media & Culture (Journalism, PR, and Advertising) at VCU, recipients of the Tiramisu For Breakfast scholarship will receive funds to go toward conferences, professional organizations dues, and networking events. I want students to have the same opportunities I’ve had to be involved in the Richmond community.
"I can't begin to express how grateful I am for receiving this scholarship."
-McKenna Day, 2020 Scholarship recipient.
HOW TO SUPPORT
Throughout the year, we’ll create opportunities to support the scholarship. So far, we’ve made T-Shirts and hosted a “Gratitude Party.” Thank you to everyone who has bought a T-Shirt through our Bonfire Funds campaign and to everyone who attended our gratitude party! If you missed these, don’t worry. T-shirts and TFB stationary are still available. Click the button below to learn more about how you can lend your support.
"I was awarded the TFB Scholarship during my final semester of college. This was an extremely important time for me as I was deciding my next steps in my career by networking with professionals, becoming involved with young professional organizations in the city, and participating in career fairs and workshops. The scholarship allowed me the opportunity to become a member of the VCU Ad Club which included a trip to NYC for a huge advertising conference. Along with that, the scholarship gives me the ability to attend local workshops at places like the Broad and other events in the city. This scholarship allowed me to be more involved in my community by taking the next steps for my career."
-Courtney Foster, 2019 Scholarship recipient.
