Scholarships

A donation to an endowed scholarship fund is truly a gift that keeps on giving. Your tax-deductible gift becomes part of a total sum that is invested and generates interest. The returns on this investment form the actual amount of scholarship resources, which are then distributed to meritorious CLASS students. In this way, your gift helps to provide scholarships in perpetuity, for future generations of CLASS students.

For information on giving to CLASS, please contact:

Lisa Nashua
CLASS Director of Development,

Please don't forget to indicate the specific scholarship or department to which you are designating your gift. Your donation will be appreciated for generations to come!

 

Scholarship Funds

CLASS Alumni Chapter Endowed Scholarship Fund

Thanks to contributions from our chapter executive, friends of our college, and our Dean, a $10,000 endowed scholarship has been established in order that scholarships can be given to deserving CLASS students annually, in perpetuity. This scholarship continues to make a much-needed difference for future CLASS alumni, one life at a time.

The names of all donors to the Endowed Scholarship Fund have been placed on the Virtual Plaque on our CLASS alumni web site. Donors of gifts of $500 are listed on a beautiful plaque that is prominently displayed in the CLASS foyer. Contributions may be made to continue building the fund.

The Michael Yarbrough Scholarship

As many of you know, Michael Yarbrough taught for the Communication Department at Cal Poly Pomona for more than 18 years. During that time, he mentored nearly 4,000 students in the art of public speaking. Michael loved working with students, and was a patient coach and tireless cheerleader. It is this legacy that we want to honor by establishing the Michael Yarbrough Communication Endowed Scholarship.

This scholarship is awarded to Communication majors who not only exhibit academic excellence but who also reflect the humane values that Michael personified every day in a life dedicated to helping others.

If you would like to contribute to this scholarship, please make your check payable to the Cal Poly Pomona Foundation, Inc., indicating on your check that your gift is for the Michael Yarbrough Communication Endowed Scholarship. Send your check to:
