Throughout the years Southport Land and Commercial Company has given high school and college scholarships in communities where the Company has substantial property holdings. Currently, the Company funds “The Southport Land and Commercial Company Scholarships,” which are awarded at a junior college and at a university.
Established in 2009, with the first scholarships being awarded in the 2010-2011 academic year, the Company's scholarships at Santa Rosa Junior College in Santa Rosa, California, periodically change as to amounts and fields of study. After seven years of awarding scholarships at SRJC, we discovered that students were not applying for some of our scholarships, which went unawarded. We attributed this to the dollar amount of the scholarships. Therefore, beginning in 2018 the amounts awarded were consolidated into one scholarship, which currently is awarded to a student studying in the field of Business Management. The scholarships are awarded annually at the Circle of Honor reception on the SRJC campus, and are administered by the Santa Rosa Junior College Foundation.
To enhance Southport Land's scholarship presence, in 2017 we expanded our scholarship program to include California State University, East Bay, with campuses in Hayward and Concord, California. Currently, one scholarship is awarded each year at CSUEB to a student with a declared major of Environmental Studies within the Department of Anthropology, Geography, and Environmental Studies.
