As the Founding Executive Director of IBLCE, JoAnne W. Scott, MA, IBCLC, guided the organization with her special mix of knowledge, wisdom, compassion and caring from its inception in 1985 to 2005. Due to JoAnne’s vision, persistence, and hard work, this was a period of exceptional growth, both in numbers of IBCLCs and in terms of the credential’s international acceptance as the lactation consultant profession’s gold standard. JoAnne passed away on September 18, 2006.
To honour JoAnne’s contribution to the profession, IBLCE has established JoAnne W. Scott Scholarship to fund an exam applicant from a mother-support group who, due to financial hardship would otherwise find it difficult to sit the exam. The scholarship may cover exam fees, travel to and from the nearest exam site if the candidate lives more than two hours from the nearest exam site, and a lactation text book for use as a permanent resource.

Scott Scholarship Donations are being sought from interested organizations and individuals to maintain an endowment fund for the scholarship under the auspices of Monetary Investment for Lactation Consultant Certification (MILCC). This scholarship was made possible by a generous initial donation by Ros Escott to establish the fund. Ros explains her reasons for donating:
This is an Endowed Scholarship Fund separate from other MILCC Scholarships.
