Vicki Decker Scholarship
The mission of Women in Business is to inspire women of diverse occupations and to provide opportunities for personal and professional growth through leadership, education, and networking.
We are proud to offer the Women in Business Vicki Decker Scholarship to aspiring students of all ages who seek personal or professional growth through higher education.
This scholarship is named in honor of the founding chair of the Women in Business organization. Vicki Decker was instrumental in the development and growth of our organization and continues to inspire and mentor women from all walks of life today.
We’d like to also acknowledge the efforts of all past presidents, boards of directors, and members who’ve served on committees and generously gave their time to ensure the continuation of this scholarship.
