\u201cWe are proud to offer a record 17 women the scholarships they need to pursue their educational goals in finance and accounting,\u201d says Melissa Maquilan-Radic, FWSF\u2019s 2022 President. \u201cAnd we are so grateful to our generous donors and supporters who have helped make this happen.\u201d<\/p>\n The FWSF scholarship grants \u2014 $10,000 for undergraduate and $15,000 for graduate students \u2014 support each recipient\u2019s educational goals. Beyond financial support, FWSF scholarship recipients also receive opportunities to be mentored by FWSF members and attend career development and networking events. This year, FWSF awarded scholarships to more students than ever before.<\/p>\n Each recipient is an academic and community leader whose goals align with FWSF\u2019s mission to empower and support women in finance. All have a passion for finance and many act as mentors to other women and those from low-income communities, sharing financial literacy to help end the cycle of poverty.<\/p>\n From venture investing in women and minorities; to co-founding a non-profit that reduces financial disparities for low-income, first generation, and minority students; to social entrepreneurship; to community building and mentoring and hiring women in their organizations, these scholarship winners demonstrate a commitment to making a positive impact in the world.<\/p>\n 2022 Graduate Scholarship Recipients:<\/strong><\/p>\n Riddhi Bahadkar \u2013 University of San Francisco School of Management<\/p>\n Makenna Caldwell \u2013 St. Mary\u2019s College<\/p>\n Cheryl Campos \u2013 Stanford University<\/p>\n Shelly Clermenco \u2013 Dominican University<\/p>\n Gabriela Forter \u2013 Stanford University<\/p>\n Lisa Gonzalez \u2013 Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania<\/p>\n Katelyn Harris \u2013 Stanford University<\/p>\n Elizabeth Hernandez \u2013 Golden Gate University<\/p>\n Samina Hydery \u2013 Stanford University<\/p>\n Monique Malcolm-Hay \u2013 Stanford University<\/p>\n Hannah Schlacter \u2013 University of California at Berkeley, Haas School of Business<\/p>\n Tabitha Florence Shikuku \u2013 Holy Names University<\/p>\n Zia MacWilliams \u2013 University of California at Berkeley, Haas School of Business<\/p>\n 2022 Undergraduate Scholarship Recipients:<\/strong><\/p>\n Liya Gezae \u2013 California State University East Bay<\/p>\n Morgan Jacobsen \u2013 University of California at Berkeley<\/p>\n Amina Mamayeva \u2013 San Jose State University<\/p>\n Jia Yi Tan \u2013 University of San Francisco<\/p>\n For more information about FWSF or to become a member, click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n For more information please visit https:\/\/financialwomensf.org\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n Follow the Financial Women of San Francisco on Twitter<\/a>, Facebook<\/a> and LinkedIn<\/a>.<\/p>\n About Financial Women of San Francisco:<\/strong><\/p>\n For over 60 years, Financial Women of San Francisco have sought to advance the success of women in finance and financial services and to be a source of insight and inspiration to financial women executives and managers throughout the Bay Area.<\/p>\n The organization\u2019s membership includes women in positions of influence within the financial services sector and women who hold senior level positions within non-finance companies, government agencies and the non-profit sector.
