The Evelyn and Albert Baron Memorial Scholarship

This memorial scholarship is to honor Evelyn and Albert Baron. Both faced adversity from early on in life, either escaping from persecution, losing a child, and facing a terminal illness. These events certainly shaped but didn’t define them. Instead, it taught them to appreciate and embrace life, seek knowledge, and influence justice through education. May this scholarship keep their memory alive and further your journey in education.

- Seeking a degree in education or related field.
- Minimum 2.5 GPA on a 4.0 scale.
- Show proof of community engagement through voluntarism.
- Special consideration will be given to applicants who are immigrants or have one immigrant parent.
