Congratulations to the 2014-15 CGA

Educational Foundation College

Scholarship recipients. This year, 296

scholarships totaling $408,000 were

awarded to deserving students attending

college this fall — which represents an

$49,000 increase over last year’s

award total.

Beginning with a single scholarship

in 1992, the Foundation has grown

exponentially over the last 22 years to

bestow over 2,900 college scholarships

totaling more than $3.5 million —

ensuring that California’s grocery

employees and their dependents have

the resources necessary to start or

complete their higher education.

The scholarship program includes four

types of scholarships: CGAEF Funded,

Legacy, Donor, and Piggyback.

CGA Educational Foundation college

scholarships are open to high school

seniors, college freshmen, sophomores,

juniors, seniors and graduate students

who are dependents of employees or are

themselves employed by a California

Grocers Association member company.

“CGAEF scholarships assist in the

continued growth and stability of our

industry.” said CGAEF Executive Director

Shiloh London. “We are grateful for

the tremendous ongoing support of our

donors which allow the Foundation

an opportunity to provide college

scholarships to these deserving students.”

The CGA Educational Foundation

was created under the direction of the

California Grocers Association Board

of Directors in 1992. Its mission is to

provide financial assistance to advance

the educational goals of CGA member

company employees and their dependents

and offer educational programs to advance

the grocery industry. For more information

on the scholarship program, please contact

Brianne Page at Foundation@cagrocers.
