Each year since 1928, FAW has awarded monetary prizes to new and deserving writers who are from the Midwest or set their books there. When you donate to the Patrons Fund, you not only help to make these prizes possible, you give an important boost to an emerging writer.
The Foundation Fund is used to grant a scholarship to students pursuing advanced degrees in writing at Columbia College. Previously, we have awarded scholarships to students at National Louis University and Roosevelt University. Scholarship recipients are nominated by faculty and show outstanding promise and skills in their writing pursuits.
FAW is a 501(c)(3) organization.
Thank you for your support!!
