The FRESNO COUNTY DEMOCRATIC WOMEN’S CLUB (FCDWC), founded in 1932, started the MANNING SCHOLARSHIP FUND for CSU FRESNO students in 1993.

Once the scholarship account reached a $2,500 balance, it was turned over to the CSU FRESNO

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION for administration.

The first scholarship recipient was JAMIE HERNANDEZ in 2001, who was presented a $500 award.

Since 2001, the club has awarded over $18,000 in scholarships, including this year’s scholarship winners MARIA AVILA CALDERON, SAUL ENRIQUEZ CAMACHO, and ASHLEIGH SOLIS, each receiving $500.

The 3 scholarship winners for 2016 will be welcomed at
