Program Scholarships and Costs for Student Participation

NAWBO-SA is a volunteer organization whose members give their time and commitment to support Entrepreneurial Connections. Texas A&M University San Antonio and UTSA, as university sponsors, commit to providing the venue for each of the one-day conferences. 

While we rely on corporate partner and member sponsorships as our main source of funding for the program, many local businesses support Entrepreneurial Connections through cash donations and other prizes. Please contact ec@nawbosa.org for more information on sponsorships and/or volunteer opportunities. NAWBO-SA would welcome YOUR support.

NAWBO-SA must raise approximately $200 for each teen woman to participate in the Entrepreneurial Connections conference, with an estimated 150 attendees.  We invite you to become a SILENT PARTNER and help us in making the Dream of education a possibility of these young women. 

In addition to program costs, we are committed to awarding college scholarships annually for a total of $20,500: 

• First Place - $10,000
  
• Second Place - $5,000
  
• Third Place - $2,500
  
• Honorable Mention - three awards of $1,000 each
