Marleen Martinez, a University of Washington graduate, who now works at Lockheed Martin as a systems engineer (rocket scientist) on Orion also spoke. “Thank you for wanting me, for teaching me, for believing in me, for making my family’s life better, for making my life better, and for making the dreams of a small little 5-year-old Mexican girl come true. Gracias,” she said.
Since its inception in 2000, the Costco Scholarship Fund has raised more than 21.7 million and provided 880 scholarships. The Costco Scholarship Fund was created by Costco CEO Jim Sinegal and Costco Chairman of the Board Jeff Brotman to make it possible academically, financially and personally for underrepresented minority students to attend and graduate from Seattle University and the University of Washington.
