The Wisconsin Club Managers Foundation (WCMF) is pleased to announce the opening of our 2026 Student Scholarship Program. As the educational and philanthropic arm of the Wisconsin Badger Chapter of the Club Management Association of America (CMAA), our mission is to foster the study of the private club industry and promote a closer affiliation between future hospitality leaders and professionals working in the field.
In line with this vision, we are offering two scholarships, each worth $1,500, to deserving individuals who are dedicated to pursuing managerial careers within the private club industry.
To be eligible, candidates must be actively seeking a managerial career in the private club industry and currently be enrolled in an accredited, two or four-year college or university undergraduate hospitality program.
