The House of Gucci is opening its doors again. This time, to receive applications for the annual Gucci Changemakers Scholarship.

It’s not every day major fashion houses offer scholarships, let alone awarding up to $20,000 per student. Gucci has opened its annual Gucci Changemakers Scholarship program, and is now accepting applications for the 2022-2023 academic year.

Gucci Changemakers in collaboration with CFDA Scholarships by Design created this scholarship program “to ensure a new era of diverse and exceptional young people will gain opportunities and experiences across the fashion industry, therefore empowering the youth and giving a voice to the next generation.”
