On
November 9, 2009, the Monterey High School Class of 1959 created
the “Monterey High School Class of 1959 Scholarship” at the Lubbock
Area Foundation with an initial contribution of $5132.00. Over the
years to come, this endowed scholarship fund will benefit Monterey
High School students who have dropped out but returned to graduate,
overcome obstacles that normally might have caused them to drop out,
or achieved graduation in spite of severe circumstances in their
lives. Although the Lubbock Area Foundation administers this
scholarship, school counselors will nominate the students considered
for this award. Additional gifts are welcome at any time and will be
added to the initial contribution and invested to generate
scholarships for graduating seniors for many years to come. Gifts
can be made by check to
Monterey High School Class of 1959

1655 Main Street #202
Lubbock, TX 79401
Gifts can be made by credit card by visiting the Foundation’s

Since its creation in 1981, the Lubbock Area Foundation has provided
millions of dollars in grants and scholarships for the benefit of
the people of the Texas South Plains. In fact, over $5.3 million
has been awarded in the past five years alone with grants to over
200 nonprofit organizations and scholarships to more than 300
students. Donors have created more than 160 endowments at the
Lubbock Area Foundation that will continuously provide much needed
support for the causes they are passionate about - the arts,
education, children and youth, hunger, homelessness, health, human
services, civic and community programs, animal welfare, the list
goes on and on.
By joining this prestigious group of philanthropists, members of
the Monterey High School Class of 1959 are investing in the future
of countless generations of Monterey High School students. |
