The Laurel Scholarship Society
Your Gift of College Opportunity Changes Lives Forever.
As a member of the Laurel Scholarship Society, you make good on the pledge that Everyone should have a chance at college by giving the opportunity to attend college to one or more qualified students. Your investment of $5,000 or more each year for four years, will enable these scholars, many of whom are the first in their family to attend college, to achieve their dream of attaining a college degree.
When you give this opportunity to one or more scholars, you change many lives. You change the life of a student like Nicole, a Redwood High School senior, who lacks the financial resources to pay for college. With your support, Nicole will realize her dream, and in doing so, you change the lives of Nicole’s family and the students she will eventually inspire as a college-educated member of our community.
Laurel Society donors like you send a simple but powerful message, “I believe in you.”
Many of the students we help, like Nicole, are the first in their
families to attend college. Your annual gift gives students both
the financial and moral support they need to succeed in college.
Your annual contribution yields one of the most impressive returns
on investment you can possibly receive:
- When one first generation college student graduates college, you have just broken the cycle of poverty for that family and for future generations, and;
- For every dollar invested in a college education, the state of California will reap three times that amount.
By giving someone the chance at college, you help make your community
a better place to live.
Membership is easy. Simply commit to providing scholarships support
of $5,000 or more each year for at least four years. 100% of your
gift will be awarded directly to one or more Laurel Scholarship
Scholars.
There are more than 1,900 students in Marin that need your help to get to college. You can help one person right now.
Please call Traci Lanier at 415.451.4005 and sponsor a scholar today.
