The Milford Rotary Club has announced its 2026 scholarship recipients, awarding funding to Milford High School students and alumni through a range of Rotary and community-supported scholarship programs.
This year’s awards include a major grant from the Warnell Charitable Trust, along with several Rotary scholarships recognizing academic achievement, service, leadership, and perseverance.
The Warnell Charitable Trust awarded $38,000 scholarships to Ms. Omotola Olagundoye of Milford High School and Kenet Perez-Rosales, a Milford High School Class of 2025 graduate who is currently attending the University of Delaware.
Additional scholarship recipients include Mr. Nathan Hague, who received the Rotary Warnell Scholarship ($2,500); Leah Metzner, Rotary Traditional Scholarship ($2,500); Erica Mollura, Interact Scholarship ($2,500); Kenny Ngoc Ung, Rotary Service Above Self Scholarship ($2,500); Madison Stahl, Rotary Perseverance Scholarship ($2,500); and Gregory “Ty” Mackert, recipient of the Dr. William Warren Scholarship ($2,500).
The scholarships are part of the club’s broader effort to support local students pursuing higher education and to recognize service and character within the Milford High School community.
The Milford Rotary Club had previously announced an expanded scholarship program earlier this year, including the addition of the larger Warnell Charitable Trust awards.
Recipients will be recognized at the Milford Rotary Club meeting on Tuesday, June 16 at 5:45 p.m. at Arenas in Milford.
