The Wisconsin Federated Humane Society (WFHS) Scholarship fund is committed to offering Badger State Conference scholarship funding to WFHS member applicants who are eager to learn and whose organization would be financially challenged to pay the registration fee. Scholarships are in high demand and each year we receive more applications than we are able to fund.
- WFHS has a limited number of scholarships available each year
- Scholarship monies cover conference registration only. Scholarship does not cover any expenses incurred outside of the conference, accommodations, transportation or other personal expenses
- Scholarships are only available to WFHS member organizations
- Please do not register online or by mail for the conference until you have been notified by the Scholarship Committee about scholarship awards (all applicants will be notified with sufficient time to register for the early bird registration fee).

~ How you hope to use what you learn at the conference and how it will benefit your organization
