About Scholarship
Each year the Gabilan Hope Scholarship program (GHS) awards college scholarships to highly-qualified migrant youths graduating from high schools in the Salinas Unified High School District (SUHSD). This program was established in 2015 by a grant from a private donor in San Francisco. His intention was to provide exceptional migrant students from often hard-pressed backgrounds with the opportunity to complete their undergraduate education by reducing the financial burdens they may face. Due to the significant barriers caused by the COVID pandemic, a number of GHS applicants are choosing to attend Hartnell College, the region's well-respected community college. Students attending Hartnell may qualify for $500 annual GHS renewal scholarships if, in addition to meeting the minimum requirements, they join academic cohort programs designed to support their transition to four-year schools, or accelerate their advancement to graduation. These academic lockstep student support programs at Hartnell include TRiO; CSin3 for computer science majors; TAG (talented and gifted) programs; and similar programs offered for special interests such as medicine and psychology, as appropriate for each GHS recipient's particular academic focus. Participation in such programs by GHS recipients attending Hartnell is mandatory. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Community Foundation for Monterey County for more information.
