Scholarships Awarded
Thirty-seven scholarships and grants to Morgan Hill girls and women!
That’s the difference you have helped make in their lives this academic year, giving them the financial incentive needed to focus on their studies.
The Scholarship Committee was allocated $28,000 from the Wildflower Fund for High School, Re-entry and Deferred, and Healthcare Scholarships, and Keeping in Touch Grants. We also received funds from the Judy Kinker and Fritts Family STEM scholarship funds.
All this resulted in:
- 10 scholarships going to high school girls,
- four going to women returning to or starting college later in life,
- one professional healthcare scholarship,
- 19 grants to women continuing their undergraduate work,
- plus one to a Young Woman Leader,
- and one each dedicated to a future teacher and a future scientist.
Be sure to thank our 14 members who dedicated their time to making all this happen: Joan Sullivan, Tammy Parker, Holly Henry, Darla Andresen, Nancy Altman; Vicky Reader, Sharon Kirsch, Alissa Crispin, Corina Sapien, Donna Dicker, Mary Cox, Tanaya Rose, Sharyn Frentner, and Joan Stempel.
