FINALLY... OUR NINTH SCHOLAR SELECTION!

This year we received 23 scholarship applications from very successful, incredibly strong and extremely smart students who have defeated the odds to achieve and continue succeeding academically.  Unfortunately, we can only select one student per year.  Here is the announcement we have been waiting months for:

We are proud to announce our 9th scholarship recipient: 

Jennifer Van

Our 2016 scholar Jennifer Van is from Bronx, New York, and a graduate of Bronx Science High School.   She will be attending Stony Brook College in the fall 2016.   Jennifer is our third scholar from the Bronx and our first Asian American scholar.

Jennifer was presented unusually late in mid-July during a private dinner with SMBS's Executive Director, Diana Diaz-Torres, and Treasurer, Alexandria Agrinsoni, on Wednesday, July 20th at Jimmy's Cafe in the Bronx.   Jennifer was accompanied by her mother, who was as equally as excited and honored to receive the scholarship as our newest scholar.

Congratulations Jennifer and welcome to our SMBS Inc. family!

Thank you to everyone who applied to our scholarship program this year.  It is encouraging to see our world is receiving such socially aware and intelligent young people, who will make a difference in their contributions to this world.  Best wishes to all our applicants!
