The Michael J. Santanna, Jr. (MJS) Achievement Foundation was established in 2017 in honor of Michael J. Santanna Jr., who passed away in August 2008. Mike Santanna was a hard-working entrepreneur who acknowledged and respected the hard work and perseverance of those who wanted to help themselves. Mike took pride in employing individuals trying to get back on their feet and took them under his wing to help them turn their lives around.
The MJS Foundation's mission is to provide economic assistance to high school students who are attempting to be productive, self-sufficient members of society through entrepreneurial activities or post-secondary education.
Currently, the Foundation's primary function is in awarding the MJS Turnaround Achievement Scholarship. The scholarship recognizes graduating seniors from each of Dauphin County's senior high schools who have turned their lives or their situations around and are now pursuing a post-secondary education.
