We congratulate the following students: Menuka Adhikari, Hoang Tran, Khalil Meftah, Anzhela Klimenko, Marlyn Martinez, Edith Melendez and Rodrigo Mendez.
The Koshland Young Leader Awards recognize the next generation of leadership in our community. Established by Dr. Daniel Koshland, Jr., this scholarship program provides financial assistance to college-bound San Francisco public high school students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Koshland Young Leaders are strongly motivated to achieve despite facing multiple challenges, such as economic and family responsibilities. They embrace a commitment to strengthening their families and communities. With the Koshland Young Leader Awards we applaud and support their dedication to succeed academically and to pursue their career goals.
