The University of Kent’s Centre for Philanthropy is pleased to announce three new scholarships generously supported by Blackbaud.
The Blackbaud Scholarships have been launched with the aim of supporting fundraising practitioners to gain substantive professional and personal development. Available to students on the MA Philanthropic Studies starting September 2019, the scholarships will enable individuals to undertake a postgraduate Master’s level programme. Taught by distance learning the MA Philanthropic Studies is designed to fit around the personal and professional commitment of practitioners.
Blackbaud is offering three scholarships to MA Philanthropic Studies students who meet the selection criteria. The scholarships will be paid towards tuition fees for the degree programme which is part-time over two years. The scholarships available consist of:
1 x full scholarship (tuition fees paid for two years)
2 x partial scholarships of £2,000 (£1,000 towards tuition fees each year of the degree programme)
David Benjamin, President of Blackbaud’s International Markets Group, said,
“Enabling fundraisers to make an even bigger impact on the world of social good is at the heart of our values, and we are delighted to help support the next generation of fundraisers in their professional development.”
The Centre for Philanthropy at the University of Kent was founded in 2008 and is delighted that Blackbaud are supporting fundraising professionals through the Blackbaud Scholarships at Kent.
