URQUHART MEMORIAL FOUNDATION

The Urquhart Memorial Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) organization founded by Philadelphia native Ernest H. Urquhart and his wife Michelle. While they now live in Phoenix, Arizona the Urquharts continue to be committed to providing scholarship support for the deserving, eligible Philadelphia resident African-American students attending college and or/universities in the state of Pennsylvania. Additionally, the UMF provides funding to individuals or organizations focused on research for the cures of diabetes and breast cancer, diseases significantly affecting African-Americans. These small grants are not geographically limited... United States government and private statistics show one-third of African-American students at four year universities had an annual income of $20,000. Against these odds, African-American students continue to value a college education and prove themselves competitive in the classroom and in the future workplace. Many of them need our support.
