Scholarship & Grant Programs

The Louie Crew Scholarship

In recognition of Dr. Louie Crew’s many years of prophetic witness in and beyond the Diocese, The OASIS – a justice ministry of the Episcopal Diocese of Newark – is pleased to announce a fund to support scholarly work that shares our mission “to make the church safe for ALL people, and to challenge the church when its interest is self-preservation and not prophetic witness.”

The OASIS will award up to two annual scholarships of $2,500. Scholarship applications will be vetted by a special Scholarship Committee which will include Dr. Crew and winners will be announced at our anniversary event in June.

We welcome applications from writers, students, and researchers. To apply:

Describe specifically in no more than 500 words how you will use the money to support ongoing scholarly work which shares the Oasis'

On a third sheet, provide a name, postal address, phone number and any
electronic address for two references who know you and your scholarship.
