Update #6 - 6 years ago
Thanks to you we made a significant impact on student success!
300 individual donors raised over $70,000 and unlocked an additional $75,000 in challenge support on MKA’s 5th annual MKA Day! Support came in from 19 states and as far away as California and Washington State!
Thank you to the alumni, parents, grandparents, faculty and staff, and friends who made a gift (or two!) on MKA Day this year in support of The Community Scholars Program.
These preliminary numbers are a powerful reminder that the strength of our school depends on the collective action and support of our entire Cougar community. #WeAreMKA
To all who participated: Thank you for showing what it means to be a part of the MKA community and stepping up to support future generations.

About
MKA Day is April 30!
2019 marks the 50th anniversary of MKA’s Community Scholar Program, the school’s most comprehensive financial assistance program. This prestigious scholarship is awarded to seven exceptional students who represent a racial or ethnic minority, show exceptional academic and personal potential and demonstrate full financial need.
To celebrate this monumental milestone and to support our students and the future of this program, this year we dedicate MKA Day to them. Please mark your calendar and plan to join alumni, parents, and friends with a gift to support The Community Scholars Program.
To find out more, please contact Becky Turcotte, Director of Annual Giving at [email protected] or 973-509-7940
