Model A Ford Youth Scholarship Fund

MAFCA is pleased to offer its support and encourages both members and chapters to also financially support this great programs for Model A youth.

The Model A Ford Youth Scholarship Fund, Inc. was established as a 501(c)(3) (tax exempt) organization to assist children and/or grandchildren of any MAFCA/MARC member in pursuing their undergraduate education, whether it be at a state university, college or technical school. The scholarships awarded are for up to four years. The funds come from financial contributions and various fundraising efforts from MAFCA/MARC members and chapters.

The Model A Ford Youth Scholarship Fund is sponsored by the Victoria Association.

Some member families have requested donations be made to the Fund out of respect for a death in the family. ALL of the funds that are contributed become part of the Scholarship Fund. The Fund administrators donate their time and receive no compensation for their time and efforts.

All scholarship winners receive $1,000 every year for up to four years upon submission of satisfactory grade requirements.

From 2002 through 2008, the scholarship has raised $120,000 for 35 MAFCA/MARC youth members. Unfortunately, we are unable to award a scholarship to each applicant, as we are limited to the funds we raise each year.

A very big THANK YOU to the MAFCA/MARC Chapters and MAFCA/MARC members who have donated to the Model A Ford Youth Scholarship Fund, Inc. If you have not donated, you are urged to do so - the kids need it. Remember, it is a non-profit organization and is, therefore, a tax-deductible contribution.

We sincerely hope that all of the MAFCA Chapters and MARC regions become familiar with the Model A Ford Youth Scholarship Fund program and get their youth members interested. The fund is there to help the youth. To carry on this program, it is necessary for the MAFCA Chapters and MARC Regions to help support the fund and to keep this great youth Scholarship program going and growing.
