Memphis High School Alumni Association
This fund was established to provide scholarships for the benefit of graduating seniors who have attended Memphis High School from 9th through 12th grades.
The Memphis High School Alumni Association established an endowed scholarship fund at the Community Foundation of St. Clair County on December 23, 2005. Scholarships will provide graduating seniors of Memphis Highs School, who have attended all 4 years, a chance to receive funds to pursue a post secondary education at any college, university, trade or vocational school. Primary selection will be based on economic need with a secondary emphasis on community involvement and a requirement of at least a 2.5 GPA.
“The two cardinal reasons that Memphis High School Alumni Association voted to create an endowment scholarship fund with the Community Foundation of St. Clair County were to have a greater opportunity to make larger awards in the near future, and to help insure the continued existence of a M.H.S.A.A. Scholarship.” – Hildred Lewis, President of Memphis High School Alumni Association.
The Memphis High School Alumni Association established the endowment fund with an initial gift of $18,000.00. Fundraising efforts are underway to raise the additional $7,000.00 needed so that this scholarship fund will be eligible for granting.
