Support the Ida B. Wells Scholarship Fund

Diversity is a Journalism Imperative

Thank you for answering the call.

We at the Newmark J-School are grateful to you for supporting diversity in journalism this past #GivingTuesday.

We are especially thankful because even during the pandemic and a time of economic uncertainty, the Newmark J-School was able to raise nearly four times the amount of our initial goal of $80,000.  That’s right!  Your donations helped us raise a whopping $306,000 and counting.  These funds will go directly to our Ida B. Wells Scholars and provide them with full scholarships to achieve their dreams of giving a voice to the voiceless.

If you missed #GivingTuesday or want to encourage others to give, it is not too late.  We are still accepting donations.  Every dollar brings us one step closer to funding a budding journalist’s vital education.

Thank you, again, from all of us at the J-School.
