Scholarship Spotlight Spring 2010 - Ohlone College Foundation
Ohlone College Foundation awards over $40,000 in scholarships to deserving students every year. Each semester we highlight four scholarship recipients and ask them to share their stories. It is with pride that we introduce a few of the Spring 2010 Scholarship recipients below.
The Foundation works hard to offer even more scholarships to the community every semester. Find out how you can help!
