“I am very proud that through the ardent support of the Miramar College Foundation and generosity of our community partners that the number of scholarships and the amount of those awards continue to grow each year,” said Dr. Wesley P. Lundburg, president of Miramar College. “It takes extremely hard work, dedication, and financial resources to pursue one’s educational goals. We, as a College, are delighted to support these students with scholarship aid.”
The Miramar College Foundation, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation, was officially created on August 21, 1994 and is committed to supporting the diverse population of Miramar College students by raising scholarship funds.
