Scholarship Program
The San Diego Fleet Week Foundation established the Scholarship Program for the benefit of San Diego naval personnel seeking to continue their education while on active duty. There are two scholarship funds established in memory of two of San Diego’s finest civic and military members: Pete Litrenta and Dick Burt.
Scholarships are awarded as funds become available. For more information, contact Alexandra Squires, San Diego Fleet Week Foundation Executive Director, 619-858-1545, or alex@fleetweeksandiego.org.
