JACK DEBORD MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP

The JACK DEBORD MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP is a regional financial aid program administered by the Community Foundation Santa Cruz County. This scholarship is designed to support local students from Santa Cruz County high schools, such as San Lorenzo Valley High School, as they pursue higher education. The program aims to assist students in funding their college expenses, helping them transition from high school to a university or college setting.

To apply, students must complete the application process outlined by the foundation. Because this is a local scholarship program, applicants should also submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or the California Dream Act Application to establish financial need, which is often a key component of community foundation awards. Recipients can use the funding to cover tuition, fees, and other educational costs at their chosen institution. For current deadlines and detailed application instructions, see the official page for current dates.
