HARMON AND SUE BURNS SCHOLARSHIP
The Harmon and Sue Burns Scholarship program is named in honor of the late Giants owners Harmon and Sue Burns. Both Harmon and Sue were generous supporters of the Giants Community Fund and Sue was a highly dedicated member of the Education Committee and the Board of Directors.
ENTERING 8TH GRADE?
If so, you're eligible to apply! Each year, 10 Harmon and Sue Burns Scholars are selected to receive special support during high school and a $5,000 scholarship after graduation. You don't have to be an A+ student to be a Harmon and Sue Burns Scholar. Scholars are selected on the basis of leadership, character, academic potential and Junior Giants involvement. Harmon and Sue Burns Scholars are honored at an on-field ceremony at Oracle Park and receive a personalized jersey when they graduate from high school. Click here to apply!
