2018 End of the Year Fundraisers

N.Y.C.F.C. vs. New England

We made it out on a school night, Wednesday, September 5th, to support our favorite team. Our boys didn't win but we were able to raised $100. Thank you to our usual soccer supporters.

New York Yankees Vs. Orioles

Supporting our home team Yankees is what we do and we raised funds while doing it. We gathered a group of 29 and raised $145 at our game fundraiser on Sunday, September 23rd.

Thank you to our true blue Yankee fans, who are also S.M.B.S. fans, for helping us enjoy a great game.

FIRST Panda Express Fundraiser

On the 11th of October, we held our very first fundraiser at Panda Express on Woodhaven Blvd. in Queens. It was a rainy day and we almost canceled but we did it! With the love and support of our supporters we raised $33.96 from sales that evening.

Special thanks to our youngest organizer, Nicolas Torres, for the idea and help in executing this event. This was his first for S.M.B.S. Inc. As always thank you to our board members and friends for making it out despite the weather.

Our last N.Y.C.F.C. Fundraiser for 2018

They didn't make it to the playoffs but N.Y.C.F.C. showed their fans they were going to try when they played Atlanta on Sunday, Nov. 4th. Thank you N.Y.C.F.C. for an amazing year and helping us raise another $120 to end the year!

WELCOME TO THE S.M.B.S. INC.

This scholarship was created in loving memory of Stephanie Marie Burgos, who was once a student who struggled with numerous life and academic difficulties but managed to maintain her love for the fine arts and communication arts. Although her dreams were never fulfilled as we lost her to a tragic car accident in 2005, her dreams live on through this scholarship and those selected to receive it.

The scholarship was developed the year Stephanie was scheduled to graduate from high school in 2008. The talented young people that have been selected to receive this scholarship continue to live Stephanie's dream.

The scholarship is granted for four years to one new candidate annually; who is a senior in good standing, graduating from a New York City Department of Education High School and entering an accredited four year college, with the condition of maintaining contact with the organization & family on their academic progress yearly.
