Donor Profile:

When Mindy Gates O’Mary, a vibrant young writer, developed multiple sclerosis, the California Press Women established this tribute award as a token of love and encouragement. Upon her death the award became a scholarship designed to encourage young, unpublished writers. It is available exclusively to SDSU students. Applicants must be unpublished writers to be eligible.
