$1 Million in Simon Youth Scholarships includes Awards for Local Students

Shauna Corbert of Brielle, NJ has received a Simon Youth Foundation Community Scholarship valued at $1,500. The scholarship is awarded in partnership between Brunswick Square and Simon Youth Foundation (SYF), a national non-profit organization dedicated to providing educational and career development opportunities for youth.

Corbert is a recent graduate of Manasquan High School and exemplified herself through academic excellence, leadership skills and participation in both school and community activities. She was on the honor roll throughout her high school years and a member of the National Honor Society. During her free time, she served as a volunteer for the Key Club and The Foodbank of Monmouth and Ocean Counties and excelled at athletics as well, participating in soccer and snowboarding. She plans to study psychology at University of Vermont in Burlington in the fall.

“We are very proud of the Simon Youth Scholarships program, because it has given us the opportunity to support the academic endeavors of promising youth right here in our community,” said Suzy Lichter, Area Director of Marketing for Brunswick Square.

With a combined value of more than $1 million, Simon Youth Scholarships have been awarded this spring to at least one student in every U.S. community that is home to a Simon® property.

“Education opens doors and creates opportunities for youth to pursue their dreams,” said J. Michael Durnil, President and CEO of SYF. “We are proud that Simon Youth Scholarships ignite hope for students by helping clear financial obstacles that stand in the way of higher education.”
