Our Scholarship Fund
The NorCal Auburn Club is dedicated to supporting our ever-growing Auburn family. Each year, the club awards an incoming freshman from Northern California a scholarship fund. We fundraise for this scholarship throughout the year by hosting events, but the easiest way to contribute is by directly donating via the link below.
This year, we are are excited to share a significant change in our approach to supporting the next generation of scholars – the transition from standard scholarships to endowed scholarships.
What is an Endowed Scholarship?
An endowed scholarship represents a commitment to the future of education and embodies the spirit of enduring support. Unlike standard scholarships, which are funded annually from the current budget, endowed scholarships are established through a permanent fund that generates interest over time. This interest is then used to provide ongoing financial assistance to deserving students.
​
Top Advantages of Endowed Scholarships:
-
Sustained Impact: Endowed scholarships provide perpetual support, ensuring that deserving students have access to financial aid year after year, creating a lasting legacy.
-
Financial Stability: By building a corpus that generates interest, endowed scholarships offer greater financial stability and sustainability, even in fluctuating economic conditions.

Thank you for being part of this incredible journey. Together, we can shape a brighter future for our alma mater and the aspiring minds it nurtures!
