MACMA Scholarships
Giving back to the community– For over a decade, the Media, Audience & Content Marketing Association (MACMA) has provided scholarships to graduating high school seniors and those already enrolled in higher education institutions. We proudly allow deserving students to complete their education and meet their full potential.
Our scholarship program would not be possible without the help of our members and sponsors.
Eligibility: Applicants must be a graduating high school senior or current college student who will be enrolled in a college/university program during the 2024-2025 academic year who is a MACMA individual or corporate member, the immediate family of a MACMA member, or an employee of a MACMA sponsoring company (as of 1/1/24). Prior winners are not eligible. Each applicant must complete a current Scholarship Application and essay questions.
Scholarship applications are considered blinded, ensuring that no one on the scholarship committee or anyone involved in the review process is aware during deliberations of a candidate’s identity or relationship to current or former MACMA members or sponsors. Each applicant is judged purely on the relative strength of their application and the quality of their responses.
Awards: A total of 4 scholarship recipients will be selected: two $1,000 awards for high school students and two $1,500 for college students. Winners were announced the second week in August.
In 2023, four awards were given out: two at $1500 each and two at $1000 each.
