Established in 1991, the Minerva Scholarship Fund provides scholarships to women whose formal education has been interrupted for at least one year and who live or work within the boundaries of Peninsula School District #401.
In celebration of our 30th Anniversary, the Minerva Scholarship Fund received a $5,000 challenge donation. Thank you to everyone who helped us to meet and exceed the goal!

This scholarship will enable me to
continue to grow in my career as a young educator without having to sacrifice
my personal financial stability, mental health or taking on further debt than
necessary. I am so grateful to have received this scholarship and for all the
support that the Minerva Board gives to women in our community.

Harriet Beecher Stowe once observed, “The Bitterest tears
shed over graves are for words left unsaid and deeds left undone.” My desire to live a purposeful life, filled
with service has led me to the MFT (Marriage and Family Therapy)
profession. Receiving a Minerva
Scholarship has been an unexpected blessing which assists me to be able to look
forward with gladness to the day I am able to serve in my chosen career.

The scholarship means that there are
people in community willing to invest in my education and my future, which I am
extremely grateful for. It gives me an opportunity to reach my goals. I am
excited for my future as an RN and excited to serve the community that has
invested in me through my role in healthcare.
