The Power of Possibility

Please join us for a special luncheon honoring our 2026 scholarship recipients and the generous supporters who make their dreams possible. For the second consecutive year, thanks to the generosity of many supporters, the West Valley-Mission Foundation will award more than $1 million in scholarships.

At this event, our supporters and scholarship recipients will connect to meet and learn about one another. Students will share how scholarships impact their lives and help them on their path to realizing their educational and career aspirations.

 Together, we celebrate what happens when generosity meets determination and the lasting power of possibility.
