$35,000 Matching Gift for 2026 Scholarship Double Your Impact Today!

This season, every dollar you give to the Santa Clara Vanguard Scholarship Fund will be matched, up to $35,000 – meaning your support goes twice as far in helping talented young performers achieve their dream of marching with SCV.

Our scholarship program exists to remove financial barriers for dedicated students who earn a contract with the corps. Applications are carefully reviewed by a committee of VMAPA staff, corps directors, and executive leadership to ensure scholarships are awarded based on true financial need and available funds. Your gift directly changes lives, empowering future generations of performers and leaders.

If you wish to make a gift in honor or memory of someone special to you or the corps, simply select “Dedicate my donation in honor or in memory of someone” on our donation page. You’ll have the opportunity to include their name and share the story behind your gift – creating a lasting tribute that supports the next wave of Vanguard excellence.

Join us today, and your impact will be doubled. Together, we can help more young people take the field in 2026 and beyond.
