The KKJZ Scholarship for Jazz Studies is funded by the KKJZ radio station. Originally with the call letters KLON (and later renamed KKJZ), the station has been broadcasting jazz since 1981. KKJZ 88.1 and Global Jazz are committed to the promotion and preservation of the rich cultural heritages of Jazz and Blues through engaging, inspiring and informative programming that satisfies the most dedicated music aficionados, while attracting newcomers of all ages.

Impact

In 2016-17 the KKJZ awarded four recipients with scholarships amounting to $5,000 each.
