Women of Fisheries Gives Back! Award

Are you an early career professional who needs some financial assistance getting your foot in the door? Maybe you need a little extra cash for professional training or assistance attending an upcoming professional conference. Or maybe you just need some help getting a professional outfit for your next interview. No matter the need, the Women of Fisheries is here to lend our support. We are offering a $250 award to a select individual who can creatively tell us a little bit about themselves, their career path, and how they plan on using these funds. See here for last year’s winners!
