Build the Dr. Teresa Fry Brown Womanist Discourse Scholarship

To recognize Dr. Fry Brown’s incredible impact on Candler School of Theology, a group of friends, colleagues, and alumni have come together to establish the Dr. Teresa Fry Brown Womanist Discourse Scholarship. Throughout her career, Dr. Fry Brown has experienced the delicate balance between pursuing advanced credentials for career growth and meeting the essential needs of raising a child. As a pioneer in womanist discourse, she has committed herself to creating a space for others to follow in her footsteps. It has long been her dream to ensure future generations do not have to carry the same burdens.

The goal is to establish a scholarship supporting students with a demonstrated interest in studying Womanist Discourse at Candler School of Theology with first preference given to those from historically African American Wesleyan tradition denominations.

Checks may be made payable to: Emory University, and include Fry Brown Womanist Discourse Scholarship in the notes, or "For" line of the check.

By giving through this campaign, your gift will be designated for The Dr. Teresa Fry Brown Womanist Discourse Scholarship within the Gifts Pending—Theology School Endowed Scholarships account, a holding account until the initial $125,000 endowment threshold is achieved. The ultimate fundraising goal is $250,000 to establish an unrestricted scholarship endowment with preference. Should the minimum funding required to endow the scholarship not be met by 2/28/2025, then gifts will be redirected to an expendable scholarship fund for the same purpose. You will see " Gifts Pending—Theology School Endowed Scholarships " on your receipt for your gift.
