Scholarship Opportunity for Rainier Beach Students

Scholarship Opportunity for Graduating Rainier Beach High Women


Calling all 2018 graduating senior women at Rainier Beach High School, the Stanley Ann Dunham Fund has opened its application period for this year’s $5000 Stanley Ann Dunham Scholarship.
The application can be submitted online at thewashboard.org. (Input a search for the Stanley Ann Dunham Scholarship.) 

Or you can mail a hard copy of the application, available at RBHS’ Counselor’s Office, or download a copy from their website at stanleyanndunhamfund.org/applyMaterials must be submitted by March 15, 2018. 

Stanley Ann Dunham was a 1960 graduate of Mercer Island High School and the mother of President Barack Obama. She became a pioneering anthropologist in the area of microfinance, helping to create sustainable businesses for people in marginalized communities around the world – especially women.
A $5,000 college scholarship will be awarded to two female students currently enrolled in the senior classes at MIHS and at RBHS who demonstrate a commitment to the values of social activism, global service, and educational excellence that Dr. Dunham practiced in her life and work.
