Since 1974, the Sacramento Press Club has offered scholarships to students who are preparing for a journalism career. In 1974 the SPC awarded one scholarship worth $1,000. Now the SPC offers multiple scholarships each year. They range from $25-hundred to $6-thousand each. Over the years the SPC has awarded more than $150-thousand to more than 100 students.
