Rankin Foundation Emerge Grant
Deadline Date: 02-13-2026
Jeannette Rankin had strong geographical ties to both Montana and Georgia as the first female Congresswoman representing Montana and a long-time Georgia resident. From the sale of her Georgia estate, the Jeannette Rankin Foundation was formed in 1976. Today our unrestricted non-tuition Emerge Grant is dedicated to women and nonbinary residents of Georgia and Montana who are 25 and older, demonstrate financial need, and are pursuing a technical or vocational education, an associate’s degree or a first bachelor’s degree at an accredited U.S. institution. Emerge Grants are up to $2,500 annually, distributed directly to recipients and renewable for up to five years.
