The Women Divers Hall of Fame scholarships and training grants are awarded yearly in the spring at Beneath the Sea in Secaucus, New Jersey. The program began in 2002 with three scholarships. This year we had a record number of applications and we will be awarding $57,000 to 47 individuals who are passionate about our water planet and looking to grow in their knowledge and skills.
To see the full list of all the amazing award winners go to you can go to our press release or our Scholarship Recipients Page.
A special thank you goes out to Shirley Pomponi, our Scholarship Chair, and her committee members for all of their hard work and many, many hours spent on our program.
