The mission of the James Ledwith Memorial Scholarship is to recognize and assist deserving students with some financial assistance for their college education. Recipients are recognized for their hope, faith, courage and service to others, while continuing to pursue a "life dream" or professional / education goal in spite of facing extraordinary life challenges. Recognizing these deserving students honors James' memory.
A important goal has been to establish a permanent endowment fund, that would always be able to recognize and assist deserving students. The fund has been granting scholarships since 1997. Since 2011 a permanent endowment is now possible under the stewardship of the Albuquerque Community Foundation. If you are touched by "James' Story" and wish to help deserving students in the future, you can help build the endowment to ensure it is always able to recognize deserving students in the future.
