In addition to BPC’s monthly meetings and events, the Bloomington Press Club helps fund the futures of young journalists.

The Club provides scholarships for local students to attend the IU High School Journalism Institute. Each summer, high school students from around the country come to the institute to learn skills at intensive workshops.

BPC’s college internship/scholarship program provides stipends to IU journalism students to work as interns in the Bloomington community. At the end of the internship, students report on their experiences to the Press Club.
