PFC Devin K.P. Cardenas Memorial Foundation Scholarship

BACKGROUND

In an ongoing commitment to the sacrifice and dedication, Devin gave to his country; his family has elected to memorialize him through the establishment of the PFC. DEVIN K.P. CARDENAS MEMORIAL FOUNDATION.  The primary objective of this foundation is to honor Devin, and not forget the ultimate sacrifice of freedom.

The foundation will provide a scholarship program for U.S. MILITARY personnel, their children and grandchildren, for the sociological and intellectual advancement of our military throughout the United States of America.  The foundation is sponsoring an annual scholarship program with scholarships from $500 to $1000 for a total of $5000 awarded annually. 

The PFC. DEVIN K. P. CARDENAS SCHOLARSHIP FUND is intended to aid qualified military personnel who, without financial assistance might otherwise not be able to further their formal education.  The PFC. DEVIN K.P. CARDENAS MEMORIAL FOUNDATION is acutely aware of the fact that formal education can be a key to upward mobility, and we believe that intellectual achievement is essential for Americans to attain the meaningful career opportunities that will advance them individually and in their communities throughout the United States and the world.
