BSF Celebrates the Holiday Season...

BSF Scholars and Families proudly celebrated he holiday season with the support of some of our friends from Lockheed Martin, All Therapy and our Member schools. Together they helped make the holiday season brighter for the families of BSF Scholars. For the last 10 years the Bethesda, Maryland office of Lockheed-Martin has supported BSF Families by donating turkey dinners. The dinners included a turkey with all the trimmings and were received by 10 families with a total of 23 children. Our Member Schools along with a local business partner, All Therapy collected items to be given during the Holiday Season. Together they collected more than 200 individually wrapped gifts.  Donations included gift cards, board games, stuffed animals, scarfs, hats, gloves and books. The Black Student Fund Scholars, Families and Staff thank you for your continued support and generosity.
