Consuelo W. Gosnell Memorial
MSW Scholarship
The
Consuelo W. Gosnell Memorial Scholarship is awarded to master
degree candidates in social work who have demonstrated a commitment
to working with, or who have a special affinity with American Indian/Alaska
Native and Hispanic/Latino populations, or in public and voluntary
nonprofit agency settings.
The
Gosnell Scholarship was established through a bequest of Consuelo
Gosnell, a social work practitioner who was born in Ciudad Juarez,
Mexico and died in Texas in 1987. Gosnell was a champion of civil
and human rights and worked diligently to ameliorate conditions
for critically under served American Indians and Latinos in the
Southwest. Gosnell practiced for many years in federal agencies,
including the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare
and the Bureau of Indian Affairs.
The
Gosnell Scholarships are awarded based on the projected annual earnings
to the fund and contributions. To make a donation, click below.
A panel reviews applicants and selects the award recipient.
Up
to 10 scholarships of up to $2,000 each will
be awarded for the 2011 - 2012 academic year.
