The Coronado Junior Woman’s Club will award three class of 2025 graduating senior girls, either attending Coronado High School or a Coronado resident, the annual Marilyn Foster Scholarship in the amount of $2,500.

The scholarship honors the legacy of the late Marilyn Foster, one of Coronado’s philanthropists who was known for her dedication to serving the community. She was a military spouse, an award-winning gardener and an active member of the club.

The scholarship is for those who have plans to attend a higher education institution in the fall and are interested in establishing a commitment to their community. Each of the three awardees will receive the $2,500 scholarship mailed directly to their college’s registrar. The CJWC started accepting applications on April 1 and the deadline to apply is May 15.
