The Community Foundation of the Verdugos Awards 2026 Scholarships and Introduces the New Biermann Scholarship

We are excited to introduce the Ken Biermann Memorial Scholarship, a new award issued in 2026 for Crescenta Valley High School (CVHS)  students who demonstrate achievement dedication, perseverance, and academic promise. This year’s inaugural award went to Torin Blunt and in keeping with Mr. Biermann’s connection to CVHS and education, it is hoped the scholarship will provide continued encouragement for Torin’s educational and career goals.

Established in January 2023 through the generosity of friends and community, as well as Mr. Biermann’s golfing buddies at the Chevy Chase Country Club, the Biermann Scholarship honors his lifetime of service to the Foothill communities. A respected educator, coach, community leader, and volunteer, Mr. Biermann dedicated his career to helping young people succeed, strengthening the community he loved. Many thanks to all who donated to the Ken Biermann Scholarship Fund to make these awards possible.  

Why It Matters

Scholarships do more than help pay for tuition.        They ease financial barriers, encourage students to complete their education, and create opportunities that strengthen our entire community.

Support an existing scholarship fund or create one    of your own and help shape the next generation of leaders, innovators, and changemakers.

For Good. For Ever.
