Inside Flap

The Simon Foundation has provided me with an amazing opportunity and I will not disappoint them. I have overcome many problems in my life and learned so much as a result. I am very proud to say that I am the first person in my family to be chosen as the recepient of a scholasip and as a result I have set a goal to graduate from a four-year university.

April Torres, San Marcos High School Class of 2010

In addition, being a Simon Scholar means that they have become part of a select group of students both at their high school and in the community and that they have been identified as having high potential according to both academic and life successes.

The Simon Family Foundation has provided me with the strength of its staff and scholars who have taught me that success is based on passion and will.

Being a Simon Scholar is more than receiv-ing a scholarship for college; it has helped me develop into a positive role model for my community.

What Scholarship is About

The Simon Family Foundation’s “Simon Schol-ars Program” was created to help economically disadvantaged students who face difficult life circumstances and seek to advance themselves through a college education. It is an especially unique scholarship program in that it begins in the summer before a student’s junior year in high school. The Simon Scholars Program offers its participants tools, mentoring and sup-port that create successful college applicants with the ultimate goal of developing confident individuals who remain highly competitive throughout their college years and beyond.

The Simon Family Foundation understands that it takes much more than financial support to change lives. Thus, the Foundation has de-veloped and become known for its intensive, hands-on college preparatory support program. We offer our recipients a host of resources aimed at whole-person development while in high school, including leadership and life-skills training, college coaching/application assis-tance, a notebook computer, SAT/ACT prepara-tion courses and exposure to the arts.
