Scholarship Opportunities

Our scholarship program is designed to assist talented individuals who aspire to earn a contract with the Santa Clara Vanguard. The applications are carefully evaluated by a committee composed of VMAPA staff, corps directors, and executive leadership, ensuring that scholarships are distributed based on the level of financial need of each applicant and the amount of funds available. By contributing to our general scholarship fund, you are making a direct and profound impact that will benefit countless hopeful young performers for years to come.

For those who wish to make a donation in honor or memory of a friend or loved one with a connection to the corps, you can easily do so. Select the option that says, “Dedicate my donation in honor or in memory of someone” when filling out the donation page. You will be prompted to include the individual’s information and will have the opportunity to share the motivation behind your gift.
