Roberta and Matthew Jenkins Scholarship Fund
Scroll To Donate Form
The Roberta and Matthew Jenkins Scholarship was created to support Black students who face economic challenges in pursuing a college degree. The intersectionality of race, systemic and structural inequality, and intergenerational poverty have definite and lingering consequences on these students’ aspirations and life trajectories. The consequences of these inequities are most evident in their post-secondary pursuits and achievement.
The intent of this funding is to provide academic scholarships, academic support, and comprehensive resources to Black students residing in the Greater Long Beach area, who have applied to, been accepted into, or are currently attending California State University, Long Beach.
