Every year, MCK awards a scholarship to one student in San Francisco's Hunters Point-Bayview neighborhood. The money gets paid directly to the individual's school to pay for tuition, books or other needs. The student who is chosen must meet all of the following minimum qualifications: reside in the 94124 zip code; must already be accepted to a college to receive the funds, but at time of submitting an application can be a high school senior intending to apply to college; must be a minimum of 30% African American ethnicity; and must have been raised in a non-conventional household (i.e. single parent, grandparents) for a majority of their life and currently still in that household.
If you are the selected recipient, the scholarship will be in the form of a check or multiple checks written in the name of the college to which you are accepted. It may be applied towards tuition, books and supplies, room and board or other fees. To apply for this scholarship, please email a 2-5 page word document addressed to the scholarship administrator that answers a given prompt.
