Tucson Club Alumni & Supporters of Everything Maize & Blue!
The U-M Alumni Club of Tucson Scholarship Fund is a very important program that serves to recognize and assist Tucson area high school seniors who enroll at the University of Michigan each fall. As you can appreciate, Tucson area students enrolling at the U-M need all the assistance they can get. Currently, out-of-state tuition alone is over $51,000 per year, and with room/board, fees and books totals over $66,000. This program needs the support of all U-M club members.
Thanks to the generosity of our club members, we have been able to award scholarships to deserving Tucson area seniors who attend the University of Michigan since 2007. Our club scholarship funds are based 100% on donations from local Alumni & Friends. We host several fundraisers each year, including a direct mail campaign, as well as other fun activities & events.
