Scholarships
Mayhew has special funds devoted to helping its boys participate in sports, music, and arts activities. Mayhew also provides dollar-for-dollar matching educational scholarships to boys and alumni who work for the program. Learn more and apply below.
Bryce Oliver Music and Arts Fund
Named in memory of Mayhew graduate and summer counselor, Bryce Oliver, this fund provides financial assistance to boys interested in music and arts activities. (Music played a special role in the life of Bryce, and he eagerly shared his love for singing with the boys of the program.)
If you are currently participating in Mayhew and you need financial support for a music or arts experience, Mayhew might be able to help.
Mayhew asks families to contribute some financial support to each request- even if only a few dollars - as a way to demonstrate the commitment of both the boys and families.
