I am passing on a letter I received from The Society of Professional Journalists.

I wanted to let you know about two honors the Society of Professional Journalists offers to outstanding journalists and writers, in hopes that you could pass along this message to your members and colleagues.

The Eugene C. Pulliam Fellowship for Editorial Writing awards $75,000 to an editorial writer to help broaden his or her journalistic horizons and knowledge of the world. The cash award can be used to cover the cost of study, research and/or travel in any field.

The Eugene S. Pulliam First Amendment Award is presented to honor a person or persons who have fought to protect and preserve one or more of the rights guaranteed by the First Amendment. An individual, group of individuals or organization will be awarded $10,000 cash and an engraved crystal to honor those committed to the same goals and as a tribute to the professional contributions Pulliam made to journalism.

For more information, including application requirements and information about these awards,click here.

Applications for both awards are due June 22. For questions, please contact Awards Coordinator Lauren Rochester at lrochester@spj.org.

Thank you for helping to spread the word about these opportunities!

Best wishes,
