SAAHJ is dedicated to helping Latinos and young professionals of all backgrounds pursue their careers in journalism and other areas of the communications sector.
Every year, we help advance these endeavors by awarding tens of thousands of dollars in scholarships to deserving students at our annual scholarship gala.
Thanks to a partnership with the San Antonio Area Foundation, SAAHJ now has an online scholarship application system.
Here’s a look at the 13 students who received $34,500 in scholarships from SAAHJ this year.
A special thanks to San Antonio businessman Guillermo Nicolas, who bestowed an additional $1,000 to each scholarship recipient bringing the grand total to $47,500!
