MissionSquare’s Memorial Scholarship Fund

About this Giving Opportunity

In 2001, MissionSquare Retirement founded the MissionSquare Retirement Memorial Scholarship Fund (MissionSquare Scholarship Fund) to honor local and state government employees who lost their lives in service to their communities. The MissionSquare Scholarship Fund provides financial assistance to the surviving children and spouses of employees who have died in the line of duty and are planning to attend an accredited two-year community college, four-year accredited university, or vocational school full-time.

Since its inception, the Fund has raised more than $1.4 million and awarded more than 450 scholarships to surviving children and spouses of fallen public sector employees from across the nation. Financial support for the scholarship is provided by individuals, foundations, and organizations. More information is available here.
