Mission Hills Garden Club Awards Merit Scholarships

| July 1, 2024 | 0 Comments

The Mission Hills Garden Club has been awarding merit-based scholarships to community college students for over 20 years. This year the Mission Hills Garden Club invited the winning students to Mission Hills for their award. The award ceremony took place at the San Diego Art Institute on Falcon Street. Owner Alexander Salazar generously offered his gallery for this event. 

To qualify and apply, students must be majoring in horticulture or agriculture. This year four students were awarded checks. Merit Scholarships were awarded to Erik Anderson of City College, Karen Mina of Mira Costa, Bianca Rosales of Mira Costa, and Jessica Spence of City College.
