                     			Scholarships help students thrive and achieve their aspirations, providing not just financial

                        				"This scholarship means so much to me and my family. I grew up in Monterey and was fortunate to attend
                           MPC, where I learned so much that will stay with me. Receiving a scholarship not only
                           helps take some of the financial weight off my shoulders as I transfer to a university
                           - it is an honor, and I am so grateful to have been selected."

                           event in my life was taking place. MPC has truly been my refuge and a place where
                           people are positive and want you to do well. I am forever grateful."

                           my education and someone who had faith in me. I really doubted myself and didn't think
                           I could register or college, but next year, I'll be graduating with my associates
                           degree in medical assisting, billing, and health administration! Being in this program
