San Bruno Community Foundation Honors 13 Outstanding San Bruno Students with Crestmoor Neighborhood Memorial Scholarship

The San Bruno Community Foundation today announced the 2020 recipients of the Crestmoor Neighborhood Memorial Scholarship. In its fifth year, the Crestmoor Scholarship provides multi-year college scholarship awards totaling $190,000 to outstanding San Bruno students who have demonstrated a strong commitment to the San Bruno community.  

The 2020 Crestmoor Scholars include Capuchino High School seniors Jumana Abdelgadir, Jun Chan, Isabella Da Silva, Tristan Davis, Karina Diaz Alvarez, Nadia Koshafa, Alannah Linden, Asia Lopez, and Jomelline Umali and Skyline College students Pearl Ibeanusi, Jakarta Kumasi-Nakuru, Kaelynn Malani, and Eric Torres (pictured above, clockwise from top left).

“This year’s Crestmoor Scholars all share a deep dedication to giving back to our community – a quality that is especially important today as San Bruno rallies to cope with the impacts of COVID-19,” said Emily Roberts, President of the Foundation’s Board of Directors. “As activists, student government officers, library volunteers, peer tutors, campus, club, and church leaders, food drive chairs, and accomplished athletes, musicians, thespians, and dancers, the 2020 Crestmoor Scholars inspire us with their engagement, empathy, and leadership. We are thrilled to support their pursuit of a college education with multi-year scholarships.” 

This year's Crestmoor Scholarship program is funded in part by a generous donation from the Joseph W Welch Jr Foundation.

The 2020 Crestmoor Scholars will be recognized at the June 3 SBCF Board meeting, which will be held via Zoom.
