March is Women's History Month and we're celebrating by highlighting unique scholarships for amazing women. Once of the best ways to honor such extraordinary past achievements of women is to take advantage of the opportunities awarded for your future - possibilities that, without their hard work, determination and efforts, would not be available to you today.
Women's History Month is a relatively new month-long observance in the United States. In fact, it's only about 40-years old as a nationally recognized month. According to a National Women's History Alliance article, National Women's History Month begin in 1980 with a proclamation from then president, Jimmy Carter.
Many celebrate fierce females by awarding and empowering remarkable women with college scholarships.
