Indeed, there are many scholarships out there specifically designed to support students passionate about gender equality and women's rights. These scholarships not only provide financial support but also could create meaningful connections and opportunities in the field of women's advocacy. Here are a few scholarships that might interest you:

1. The American Association of University Women (AAUW): Offers several scholarships, grants, and fellowships for women pursuing various fields of study. It's a nationally recognized organization dedicated to advancing gender equality.

2. The P.E.O. STAR Scholarship: Awarded to exceptional high school senior women who are planning to study full-time in college. Recipients are selected based on their commitment to leadership, extracurricular activities, community service, academics, and potential for future success.

3. The Live Your Dream Awards: Provided by Soroptimist, an international organization for business and professional women who work to improve the lives of women and girls. This scholarship is for women who provide the primary source of financial support for their families and are pursuing undergraduate degrees.

4. The Jeannette Rankin Women's Scholarship Fund: Supports low-income women 35 and older across the U.S. to build better lives through post-secondary education.
