Jefferson Scholar Alumni

The Jefferson Scholars Alumni Community now stands at 487 Scholars and 17 Fellows.  These individuals live, work, and learn all over the world.  Many of them are in post-graduate academic programs, or have recently completed advanced degrees.  They serve their communities as teachers, doctors, lawyers, veterinarians, parents, poets, musicians, playwrights, and small business owners.  Among them are the new president of the Special Olympics and two law clerks for the Supreme Court of the United States of America.

As individuals they continue to support the Foundation in important capacities, serving as interviewers on selection committees and as advisers to the Foundation on various other boards and committees.  Their philanthropic contributions aid the Foundation in its growth and development and have already endowed one named scholarship with a second soon to become funded.  They remain a vibrant and committed group who make significant contributions to the communities around them in a variety of ways.
