Helping our community’s students succeed through scholarship opportunities.

Ocean Beach Scholarship Fund is a network of non-profit, community-based groups whose volunteer members provide scholarship and academic support for local students.

Our mission is to mobilize our community on behalf of post-secondary education success for our local Ocean Beach students. We help local Ocean Beach and Point Loma high school seniors, as well as local Ocean Beach residents, achieve their educational goals by raising scholarship funds, establishing endowments, providing assistance with college readiness and the financial aid process, and distributing scholarships each year.
