The application for the Joe Beirne Scholarship is now available and will remain open until the deadline of April 30th, 2024. Aapplications are available here. 

Sixteen partial college scholarships of $4,000 each are being offered for the 2024-2025 school year. Winners are selected in a lottery drawing, and will also receive second-year scholarships of the same amount contingent upon satisfactory academic accomplishment. Part-time students enrolled in less than 12 credits are eligible to receive a $2,000 scholarship.

CWA members, their spouses, children and grandchildren, including those of retired or deceased members, are all eligible for the scholarship award.

If you’re not currently supporting your union and would like to become a CWA member, visit https://www.cwa1031.org/join or speak to your branch president or a shop steward to sign a card.
