SCHOLARSHIP
FUNDS
Through the Pasadena Community Foundation, scholarship funds are
easy to establish. They reflect the donor’s interest in supporting
the aspirations and capabilities of others to accomplish worthwhile
scientific, athletic, artistic or other goals. Scholarships such
as the Fulbright or Rhodes Scholarships are examples of how these
funds continue to honor their donors. The accomplishments of scholarship
recipients serve as a tribute to the wisdom and commitment of the
original donor.
Pasadena Deltas Establish Permanent Scholarship Fund at Pasadena Community Foundation
 At the 2005 Annual Meeting of the Pasadena Delta Foundation, Inc (PDF), the PDF presented a check for $125,000.00 to the Pasadena Community Foundation (PCF) to begin a permanent Academic Award Fund to support the ten annual Commemorative scholarships given annually by the Pasadena Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority. The chapter has given over $300,000.00 to deserving Pasadena graduates. John Singleton, award winning film producer and John Kennedy, successful developer, are among the awardees.
The Delta Academic Award Endowment Fund at PCF is now the main funding source for their local scholarships. |
