One of the benefits that the SPJST makes available to its members is a competitive scholarship program. The SPJST Scholarship/Grant Program is meant to encourage and assist members to further their education and to help them achieve career goals.

SPJST General Scholarships
SPJST General Scholarships were established in 1982 for all SPJST members. General Scholarships are funded by the Supreme Lodge and voluntary contributions by SPJST members. Accordingly, the more funds available, the more scholarships awarded.

SPJST Leadership Grants

Scholarship/Grant Applicant Information
Applicants must have an active SPJST insurance certificate in force for one year and hold an active SPJST insurance certificate for the duration of the scholarship or grant. SPJST scholarship recipients must enter college the fall term following the announcement of their award.
