South Bay Women’s Network (SBWN) hosted its Scholarship Presentation at The Benedict in Morro Bay this year. Members, guests, and scholarship recipients came together to celebrate six Cuesta College female re-entry students, each receiving a $1,000 scholarship.
The scholarship recipients represent a diverse range of backgrounds and academic pursuits. Each woman has demonstrated exceptional drive, resilience, and dedication to her educational goals. The scholarships will provide vital financial support, helping them overcome educational barriers and navigate the challenges associated with pursuing higher education.
The funds for these scholarships came from this year’s Garden Party Scholarship Benefit and the Clue the Movie fundraiser at the Bay Theater. We also received generous support from the SLO Women’s Network, SBWN members, and other supporters. This important effort shows SBWN’s strong dedication to empowering women in the South Bay community and helping them succeed in their education.
Thank you to our Scholarship Interview Committee – Valerie Parillo and Denise Lowe.
