Scholarship Fund Background

Every year, the SVS provides $3,000 to support two $1,500 scholarships for students entering their final year of a planning undergraduate or graduate program at UC Davis, CSU Chico and Sacramento State. Planning students in the section are also eligible for additional funds awarded by CPF. The fundraising goal for the Scholarship Fund is $3,000.

In addition to scholarships, the Section utilizes the Scot Mende memorial fund to assist young and emerging planners with professional development opportunities, ensuring that all planners have access to the programming our section has to offer, such as the PLAN mentorship program and Rural PLAN mentorship program. The fundraising goal for the Scot Mende Memorial Fund is $500.
