MNA/Peat-Piper Scholarship Fund
The MNA/Peat-Piper Scholarship Fund awards two $500 scholarships to students graduating from high school or its equivalent. The scholarships provide money for post-secondary education for children with "significant ties" to the Marquette Neighborhood who demonstrate financial need. Significant ties may include having lived, worked, volunteered, attended school, or participated in community programming in the Marquette Neighborhood. Area school guidance counselors can help students with the application process, or contact Scott Thornton for information.

2009 Scholarship Award

In 2009 we awarded a scholarship to Rachel Looper who was planning to attend UW-Madison and pursuing a degree in Elementary Education.

We recently learned that Rachel was on the Dean's list for her first semester at the UW. Congratulations Rachel!
