ABOUT SCHOLARSHIPS

NATAS Mid-America has the mission to reward academic excellence in the television field, bringing the most talented people into our business. The Walter Cronkite Scholarship is open to broadcast journalism applicants, while our new Mid-America EMMY Creative Arts Scholarship is for those pursuing TV careers outside the newsroom.

Legacy giving to NATAS Mid-America's Foundation can include naming and endowment opportunities. Generous one-time or sustaining gifts support a new generation of driven television professionals who are inspired by the same ideals that brought our chapter's current members into the business. Your generosity funds financial aid that makes the difference! All contributions to our 501(c)(3) foundation can be tax-deductible.
