The Junior League of Washington (JLW) is committed to supporting pathways to opportunities through improved access to education, professional and financial development, and capacity-building resources in our community. Our annual Meg Graham Scholarship is an important piece of fulfilling our mission. This volunteer service award was established in 1982 in honor of the late Reverend Margaret M. Graham, a former member of JLW and former President of the Association of Junior Leagues International. The $10,000 scholarship is awarded in her memory.
The Junior League of Washington (JLW) is pleased to announce Courtney Howard as the winner of the 2023-24 Meg Graham Scholarship: Celebrating Service and Leadership. Ms. Howard impressed our interview committee with her commitment to volunteering, scholastic excellence, and being an asset to the community.
The Scholarship Committee is also honored to present this year’s Book Awards to Avajane Lei and Samiya Williams. Both Ms. Lei and Ms. Williams are outstanding young people that are committed to community service and social justice.
