Absolutely, that's another great example of pro-action. PyData is doing 
that, too. Every sponsorship includes a number of diversity 
scholarships. A diversity committee accepts scholarship applications and 
makes the awards. A stated major aim of the conference is to increase 
the diversity of the Python data science community.
