Ennes Scholarships

Each year, the Ennes Educational Foundation Trust offers scholarships to deserving candidates who aspire to a career in the technical aspects of broadcasting. Scholarship awards are used for tuition, room and board or textbook costs at post-secondary educational institutions, or for other technical training programs approved by the Scholarship Committee. Preference will be given to applicants who are SBE members; however, any individuals otherwise eligible, including graduating high school seniors, are encouraged to apply. Scholarships within the program include:

• John H. Battison SBE Founder’s Scholarship (open to anyone)
• Harold E. Ennes Scholarship (open to anyone)
• Robert D. Greenberg Scholarship (open to anyone)
• Gino Ricciardelli Scholarship (open to anyone)
• Youth Scholarship (specifically for graduating high school seniors)

Applicants must complete and submit this application to be considered for a scholarship. In 2026, the Trust anticipates awarding five $3,000 scholarships, depending on available funds. Applicants are limited to one scholarship award per year. At the end of the Award Term (July 1 – June 30), recipients will be expected to submit a technical paper of 400-500 words on a broadcast-engineering topic of their choice for potential use in an SBE publication.
