*The Southern California-based Hutchinson Fund is proud to unveil its latest initiative, the Earl Sr. and Nina Hutchinson Students of Color Financial Support Award. This award, beginning in August, aims to provide monthly financial assistance to high school and college students of color, helping to cover essential expenses such as materials, transportation, and food.
The inaugural student recipient for August is Kyndahl Carter, a dedicated scholar-athlete at California State University San Bernardino. Her hard work and commitment have earned her this financial support, paving the way for further academic and personal achievements. A hearty congratulations to Kyndahl on receiving this honor.
The Hutchinson Fund has outlined plans to distribute multiple cash awards in September. Those with potential student awardees are encouraged to get in touch for more information.
Recognizing the crucial impact that timely financial support can have on a student’s academic journey, the Hutchinson Fund is particularly focused on aiding minority students in underserved urban school districts. Many aid programs in these districts have been downsized or eliminated, making the role of private donor groups increasingly significant.
The Earl Sr. and Nina Hutchinson Students of Color Financial Support Award was established for two primary reasons. Earl and Nina Hutchinson believed deeply in the transformative power of education.
They saw education as the cornerstone for professional and personal success. Secondly, they invested every available resource into their own children’s education, setting a strong example of commitment and value towards learning. Their legacy of championing education continues through this award, ensuring that future generations can also benefit from it.
For those interested in submitting potential awardees for September, further information can be found on their Facebook page: Hutchinson Fund Facebook.
This initiative by the Hutchinson Fund not only honors the legacy of Earl Sr. and Nina Hutchinson but also aims to bridge the financial gaps that many students of color face, ultimately promoting educational equity and excellence.
