About Marine Corps Scholarship Golf Tournament Inc La-Sherman Oaks
Marine Corps Scholarship Golf Tournament Inc La-sherman Oaks centers its giving on unrestricted support for organizations tied to Marine Corps families and related service communities. In the latest grants, the two largest awards were both $125,000 general-support grants to Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation in Alexandria, Virginia, one in 2025 and one in 2024. That repeated commitment points to a funder that supports the same mission over multiple years rather than scattering small one-off awards. The foundation’s recent work also extends to smaller general-support grants for other military-connected nonprofits, including Devil Pups Foundation in Wilmington, California, and Socks for Heroes in Wesson, Mississippi. Those grants sit alongside a broader program profile built around education, scholarships, military families, and career and technical education. The active grant programs show direct scholarship support for undergraduate, associate degree, and certificate pathways, with offerings for children of Marines and Navy-affiliated service members, including wounded, fallen, and killed-in-service categories. Across those programs, the foundation funds individuals through scholarships rather than program-related investments, and its posted scope of giving is regional.
What Marine Corps Scholarship Golf Tournament Inc La-Sherman Oaks Funds
Education is the clearest throughline in the foundation’s program design. It offers an Undergraduate & Associate Degree Scholarship for students pursuing an associate or bachelor’s degree at an accredited, federal-aid-eligible school, and a Career & Technical Education Scholarship for students entering a non-degree certificate program. Military-family support is built into multiple scholarship tracks. Heroes Tribute Fallen serves eligible children of Marines and certain Navy personnel killed in service-related circumstances, with income eligibility waived. Heroes Tribute — Children of the Wounded supports children of wounded or permanently retired Marines and Navy-affiliated service members, while Heroes Tribute Wounded extends that support to children of Marines and certain Navy personnel affected by service-related injury or illness. The foundation also maintains a Grandchildren Scholarship Program for eligible grandchildren of members of certain partner associations, as long as they also meet the general scholarship criteria.
