Thanks to the generous contributions of our community, the Ken Verkler Memorial Scholarship makes a meaningful impact in the Santa Ynez Valley. In 2025, we were proud to award scholarships to 14 deserving students—an achievement made possible by your support.
The Verkler family is committed to growing this scholarship fund to help even more students pursue their educational goals in the years to come. With your continued generosity, we can carry Ken’s legacy forward and expand opportunities for local youth.
