In honor of Myrna, and her dedication to the students of Oxnard School District, the Myrna Abdel-Gawad Memorial Scholarship Fund (the Myrna Scholarship) has been formed. It was founded by a group of colleagues, and her daughter, and is intended to provide assistance to a student striving to attain a degree and education at a two or four-year college or university. We have formed a non-profit corporation with a Board of Directors, established criteria, and are in the process of drafting a scholarship application to begin the process of seeking out our first scholarship award winner.
We have been approved for Section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status with the Internal Revenue Service. All donations are tax-deductible. We would be grateful if you would consider donatingĀ or donating again to the Myrna Scholarship, particularly in honor of her birthday on November 14, and in anticipation of the end of the tax year.
We thank you in advance for your support. Your donation is greatly appreciated and will be used to further the educational goals and dreams of an Oxnard School District student.
