New Scholarship Funds
In 2019, TWC established two privately funded scholarship funds, the Margery
Magill Memorial Scholarship Fund and the Joseph and Mary Ellen Yenerall
Politics and Public Service TWC Scholarship.
The Margery Magill Memorial Scholarship Fund
The Margery Magill Memorial Scholarship Fund was established in memory
of TWC's dear colleague, Margery Magill and in consultation with her family.
Through this scholarship fund, TWC honors Margery's dedication to international
relations, food security and women's empowerment. Funds raised will support
select students who are majoring in international relations and/or agricultural
economics, and/or women's studies, or who are interning in these areas through
their participation in The Washington Center's program. Since its creation in
2019, TWC has awarded 11 students with this award.
