Malone Scholar

In July 2010, Pulaski Academy was selected as a recipient of a 2 million dollar grant from the Malone Family Foundation to provide scholarships for academically gifted students with financial needs. 

Malone Scholars are chosen by Pulaski Academy based on academic merit and financial need alone without regard to race, creed, or any demographic characteristics.

The Malone fund supports certain school-related expenses such as:

• tuition
• book fees
• computers and other educational materials
• costs for participation in school-sponsored competitions.

“Our goal is to provide an outstanding education to every young student who is among the top five percent of his or her class, and who displays the keen desire and motivation to learn, yet lacks the resources to finance such an education.”

Cathie Wlaschin, Executive Director of the Malone Family Foundation based in Englewood, Colorado.
