This section of the website discusses opportunities, number, kind, and some history regarding each of our existing endowments, trusts, or scholarships available to Meridian High School grads. Over our existence the majority of scholarship funding has been given to graduates of a current graduating class. However, scholarships have been given to individuals who graduated in previous years, when they decided to further their education. It is our desire that upon reading about each of these endowments and having a better understanding and appreciation regarding the background of the donors, individuals would find a particular endowment or fund in which to place a donation or gift. If one cannot select a specific endowment or fund to contribute to, the general MPSF account is always available to accept donations. The possibility also exists for new endowments to be created and continued. |
