Gladys Black Scholarships

| Gladys Black Carl Kurtz |
An avid birder and writer, Gladys Black is one of the most influential and important conservationists in Iowa history. The Gladys Black Scholarship seeks to recognize young conservationists who share her passion for Iowa's natural heritage and native species.
The scholarship was created when fundraising efforts for the Gladys Black Bald Eagle Refuge in Marion County far surpassed the goal. The extra funds created this endowed scholarship, worth $250 to $1000, which is awarded each spring. Recipiants may renew their scholarship on a yearly basis during college.
High school seniors -- who are either Marion County residents or attending a Marion County high school -- and who are planning on majoring in conservation or natural resources at an accredited university or college are eligible to apply.
