We did this at least once a year pre-pandemic. Reconnecting tonight, together, no masks, no social distancing, and sharing stories like we used to…and supporting our alma mater - our one public high school - with the Scholarship Fund of Alexandria Tonight was good for the soul! 💙❤️

The Scholarship Fund of Alexandria (SFA) recently awarded $600,000 in college scholarships to graduates from the class of 2022. Soon, the nonprofit organization plans to match that amount when they award students already in college, contiuing a promise to offer support throughout their academic careers. Thus, $1.2 million dollars will be the largest amount ever given by the SFA.
“We are so very proud of the next generation of nurses, doctors, business leaders, computer scientists, recording artists, biologists, and professors ,” said SFA Board Chair Priscilla Goodwin, “who are heading off to college this fall thanks to the generosity of this community. Scholarships really do make dreams come true.”
The recipient of the Madelyn Anderson Memorial Scholarship, the largest offered, was Brianna Jerez. She will receive $40,000 over four years while she attends Virinia Commonwealth University. As the first member of her family to attend college, she plans to pursue a degree in criminal justice.

Late last month, the Scholarship Fund of Alexandrial (SFA) held its first in-person gala in three years. The event raised nearly $500,000 for scholarships, thanks to donations from the Alexandria community and its businesses.
During the gala, the board chair of the SFA, Priscilla Goodwin, announced that the nonprofit recently gave $600,000 in scholarships to 206 Alexandria City High School students who will graduate this next month. The SFA also plans to award an additional $600,000 to Titans already in college, supporting them as they complete their four-year degrees. That adds up to a commitment of $1.2 million.
Student speaker Brianna Jerez, the recipient of the Madelyn Anderson Scholarship (amounting to $40,000, the largest amount awarded to one individual) told the assembled crowd of local leaders, business owners, and high school alumni that she realized pivotal role higher education would have in helping to achieve her career goals. As a result of the schoalrship and financial aid, this member of the class of 2022 will graduate college debt free.
What a beautiful and inspiring evening over the weekend celebrating Alexandria City High School graduating seniors and raising money to support the Scholarship Fund of Alexandria!
Thank you to Congressman Don Beyer for inviting me and sponsoring our table of young Democrats. I was delighted to attend and had such a great time that Govan Faine and I forgot to take pictures together (lol!)
Congratulations to our Titans! Bravo to the SFA Gala committee! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👩🏽🎓

Had a fantastic time last night at the first in-person Scholarship Fund of Alexandria gala in three years…and eight hours later ran my first Pacers (5k - because the General Assembly session is not conducive to training).
