Legacy Scholarships
Nothing is harder than saying goodbye to a loved one. Our foundation has created a way to keep the legacy of friends and family alive, but without a long-term commitment or a huge amount of money. We call it our Legacy Scholarship. When a person or group donates at least $3,000 dollars (enough for a scholarship) a student is selected from the recipients to continue the legacy of the person or group being honored. The students receive a letter describing the person they were selected for and families receive a beautifully packaged keepsake with a letter about the student. Their hopes, dreams, and why they were chosen to represent the legacy of your loved one(s). It's a small way to keep memories alive and hope moving forward to the next generation.
Joop de Jonge
Joop de Jonge was a longstanding member of the MVHS Scholarship Foundation. Since joining the board, he proved himself to be a dedicated and enthusiastic member, attending all of the meetings he could. Always willing to lend a helping hand, Joop took on outside projects for the foundation with a smile. He was a good humored man with a positive attitude and we on the MVHS Scholarship Foundation board feel his loss deeply as we begin a new school year and scholarship cycle.
We know how much Joop appreciated this board and its mission and we are honored to be offering a Legacy Scholarship on his behalf in the next scholarship cycle. If you would like to contribute to the legacy Joop leaves behind, the link below lists options for donations.
