	FOR 52 YEARS, THE MARINE CORPS SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION HAS BEEN PROVIDING ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE EDUCATION FOR THE CHILDREN OF MARINES AND THE NAVY CORPSMEN WHO SERVE WITH THEM ATTENDING POST-HIGH SCHOOL, UNDER-GRADUATE, AND CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS. TODAY, WE ARE THE NATION'S OLDEST AND LARGEST PROVIDER OF NEED-BASED SCHOLARSHIPS FOR MILITARY CHILDREN HAVING AWARDED MORE THAN 33,000 SCHOLARSHIPS WORTH NEARLY $90 MILLION. IN 2014, THE SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION PROVIDED EDUCATIONAL SUPPORT OF APPROXIMATELY $6.4 MILLION TO 2,200 INDIVIDUALS, WHICH WAS A RECORD YEAR IN TERMS OF NUMBER OF SCHOLARSHIPS PROVIDED. THE SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION DOES NOT JUST ISSUE SCHOLARSHIPS AND CHECK THE BOX FOR A JOB WELL DONE. THE SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION EVALUATES SUCCESS BY THE SUCCESS OF OUR STUDENTS. ONLY 27% OF FIRST GENERATION COLLEGE STUDENTS ACTUALLY EARN A DEGREE. AT THE SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION, MORE THAN 80% OF OUR RECIPIENTS ATTAIN THEIR DEGREES AND 50% OF ALL THE STUDENTS WE SUPPORT ARE ACTUALLY FIRST GENERATION COLLEGE STUDENTS. WE ARE FAR SURPASSING THE NATIONAL STANDARDS AND PROUD OF IT, AS ARE OUR INVESTORS. AT A TIME WHEN PATRIOTIC AMERICANS ARE INCREASINGLY SKEPTICAL OF A BURGEONING CHARITABLE LANDSCAPE, THE SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION MAINTAINS THE PUBLIC TRUST WE HAVE EARNED FOR 52 YEARS WITH RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATIONAL MANAGEMENT AND EXHAUSTIVE FISCAL TRANSPARENCY. NOT ONLY ARE WE A SOLID INVESTMENT, WE'RE A TRUSTED STEWARD FOR MORE THAN 52,000 INVESTORS WITH EXCEEDINGLY STRONG CONTROLS OVER EVERY FINANCIAL TRANSACTION. THE TRUST OF THOSE INVESTORS IS FURTHER VALIDATED BY TOP MARKS FROM LEADING CHARITY WATCHDOGS, INCLUDING AN A+ RATING FROM THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU, AND 4 OUT OF 4 STARS FOR ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY FROM CHARITY NAVIGATOR. TOGETHER WITH OUR INVESTORS, THE SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION IS TURNING KIDS RAISED ON THE SPIRIT OF SEMPER FIDELIS INTO THE FUTURE LEADERS OF AMERICA.
