Approximately 37 scholarships have been awarded since the program's inception in 2010 -- updates on last year's scholarship recipients are available online at http://goo.gl/ z6TP7K.

The fund is designed to help "turnaround teens" who have demonstrated initiative in pursuing a better life -- Drew was a "turnaround teen."
