End of Year Impact Report

As 2020 draws to a close, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on the accomplishments made at the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation this year – and how grateful we are for your commitment to making this possible.

Thanks to dedicated supporters like you, we’ve awarded thousands of scholarships to children of Marines, honoring the sacrifices of our service members with scholarship support for their children. Here’s what we have achieved together this year alone:


As we wrap up this calendar year and begin looking ahead to the next class of Marine Scholars, we want to thank you for all that you do to honor Marine families. Your support was absolutely critical during this challenging year and with your continued support, we’re able to ensure that no Marine family in-need gets left behind.

Semper Fidelis,

If You Can, You Must Scholarship Initiative

More than 14 years ago, Dakota Meyer, a U.S. Marine serving in the War in Afghanistan, risked his life to bravely save the lives of U.S. and Afghan forces in the Battle of Ganjgal. For his actions, he was awarded the Medal of Honor, the first living Marine in more than forty years to receive the award. Since leaving active duty, Dakota has embraced opportunities for continued service. Through his partnership with the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation, the “If You Can, You Must” Scholarship will provide educational scholarships to the children of Marines and inspire the future leaders of America.
