Susan Wojcicki Scholarships

"Life doesn’t always present you with the perfect opportunity at the perfect time. Opportunities come when you least expect them, or when you’re not ready for them.” - Susan Wojcicki

In honor of my daughter Susan Wojcicki - an extraordinary leader, innovator, and mother - I am proud to establish the Susan Wojcicki Scholarship, dedicated to supporting the next generation of high school students who embody curiosity, courage, and a commitment to making a positive impact on the world.

Susan believed deeply in the power of education, creativity, and opportunity. Throughout her life, she championed access to knowledge, encouraged bold thinking, and opened doors for others to succeed.

These scholarships continue that spirit by investing in young people who demonstrate not only academic excellence, but also initiative, integrity, and a desire to contribute meaningfully to their communities.
