In partnership with the Alaska Center for Excellence in Journalism Fund,  Alaska Press Club offered travel assistance awards for working journalists and journalism students to attend the annual J-Week professional conference. Our conference will be held April 10-12, 2025 in Anchorage.

The awards are for reimbursement for travel expenses, redeemable by successful applicants after submitting their travel expense receipts. These funds can be used for airfare, ferry or mileage reimbursement.

Applications are closed. We have awarded 34 individuals with travel reimbursements in 2025.

Join the travel scholarship waitlist: Funds have been awarded but if additional funding is secured, we will reach out to you. Email alaskapressclubinfo@gmail.com with the subject “Travel Waitlist.”

If you have questions or would like to support this fund and help us bring more journalists from across Alaska to the conference, contact Rosey at alaskapressclubinfo@gmail.com.

This  fund is supported by the Atwood Foundation via the Alaska Center for Excellence in Journalism Fund and through individual contributions such as memberships, contest entries and general donations.
