Milken Family Foundation

A number of outstanding high school seniors have been named 2008 Milken Scholars by the Milken Family Foundation, including three valedictorians. Many are the first in their families to go to college. A majority of the new Scholars are children of immigrants, three of whom were born outside of the United States themselves. Each recipient has a record of excellence in academics, leadership and service, and has triumphed over obstacles. Their myriad accomplishments range from creating an organization to combat genocide in Darfur to conducting an intensive multi-year molecular biology study on breast cancer.
