Sara Takii Scholarship

In 2015 Bakersfield Republican Women, Federated established a scholarship designed for female students who will graduate, or have graduated, from a high school in Kern County. The scholarship was named in honor of past president Sara Takii who went above and beyond the call of duty to nurture the Student Advocacy Program. Our scholarship serves as a lasting tribute to Sara and an opportunity to recognize conservative Kern County young women.

We encourage all young Republican women to consider applying for our scholarship.
