APIW Scholars Program
APIW Memorial Scholarships
Giving back to the industry
Each year since 1987, APIW has awarded scholarships to worthy students at The College of Insurance, now St. John's University, the School of Risk Management. In the latter years, these were given under the name "Lana James Memorial Scholarship," in honor of a dedicated APIW volunteer and Board Member who died prematurely in 1992. Additional scholarships were also given on behalf of our Chicago Network to the Katie Insurance School of Illinois.
The tragic events of September 11th brought about our desire to create a symbolic and encompassing remembrance. We wished to honor all those within the APIW family who were lost that day and remember those members who have lost their lives prematurely.
In their memory, APIW's scholarships are now given under the name "APIW Memorial Scholarship" at St. John's University and the "APIW Lana James Memorial Scholarship" at the Katie School of Insurance.
