The Lenfest Next Generation Fund Awards for Professional and Student Journalists provides awards to Philadelphia-area journalists and students of color to use toward professional development or internship support. To be considered for either track, you must be a journalist or a student of journalism who resides in the Greater Philadelphia Area and self-identifies as a person of color. Applicants can apply to both the Internship Support Track and the Professional Development Track but preference will be given to first-time award recipients. The Professional Development Track provides awards of up to $1,200 to support. The Internship Support Track provides funding up to $4,200 to support students and journalists while participating in unpaid internships.
