Each year, the AFA Foundation provides a series of scholarships to attend the AFA Annual Meeting provided by the support of our donors. Scholarship applications are reviewed through the lens of need, prioritizing those who are unlikely to be able to attend the Annual Meeting without scholarship support.
For the 2025 Annual Meeting, scholarship applications will open in June 2025, and are expected to be awarded in August 2025.
