The Foundation, in 1997, established the annual Robert E. Leslie Memorial Scholarship program which provides a $1,500 grant every Spring to seven graduating seniors from the seven high schools in the °µÍøÊÓÆµ area. Leslie was a former °µÍøÊÓÆµ Fire Chief and founding director of the Foundation.
The °µÍøÊÓÆµ Bar Association is proud to award scholarships to high achieving, college-bound high school students from across °µÍøÊÓÆµ in order to make their financial burden more manageable.
The Port of °µÍøÊÓÆµ scholarship is an annual award for °µÍøÊÓÆµ high school seniors who plan to pursue careers in international trade, goods movement or other port-related industries. It is the Port’s goal to provide financial assistance to deserving students and to support them in their quest to become successful professionals and future leaders.
