Help M-A Academy Seniors realize their college dreams
"few investments yield as high a return as a college degree"
WHAT WE BELIEVE
TAKE ACTION
A four-year degree has never been more valuable but the financial hardship it creates for a family remains too great for many of our students to pursue upon graduation from Menlo-Atherton. The goal of this scholarship is to target students in the Menlo-Atherton Academy program who do not have the family support or financial resources available and help them in making their college dreams a reality!
We feel that money shouldn't be the reason a child can't go to college. This scholarship has already proven that it can and will motivate students in their quest to both attend and succeed in college by alleviating many of their financial burdens and helping to extend the "family feel" we have created beyond high school. Your contributions go directly to the students - absolutely no administrative fees or other nonsense.
