Scholarship Criteria

One-year scholarships for women graduates of Clayton County high schools (this includes students who are currently enrolled in, or past graduates of, Clayton County high schools). Students must have a grade point average of 2.5 or above, and must plan to enroll full-time at an accredited college/university. Preference will be given to those women who are currently or who are planning on to pursue a degree in journalism or related studies.

Give to the Fund

Financial gifts to the Zita L. Humbert Memorial Scholarship Fund with the Community Foundation of Northeast Iowa allows the Community Foundation to award financial assistance to students pursuing higher education. As the cost of tuition continues to rise, it is more important now than ever to diminish the barrier of affordability and allow students to focus on what is most important - their education.
