Williams Class of 2016 at the 30<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary awards ceremony on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n<p>Recipients and their parents celebrated with dessert at a reception at T.C. Williams High School.<\/p>\n<p>T.C. senior Ross Cooper, recipient of the Madelyn Anderson Memorial Scholarship, thanked the donors on behalf of this year\u2019s recipients.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The investment that the Scholarship Fund has made in each and every\u00a0scholarship recipient is an endowment in our futures. For many of us, our scholarships will help to make higher education a reality.\u00a0We are grateful to all who have helped us on our respective journeys,\u201d Ross said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A total of $442,000 in scholarships was awarded to 159 TC seniors, with 35 scholarships given out as memorials.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Prior to high school, I envisioned a different\u00a0career\u00a0path for myself.\u00a0However, the reality of going to a school with students and teachers of diverse backgrounds with various viewpoints on life and with a range of educational avenues and resources has shaped me to be globally, politically and socially conscious,\u201d Ross said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He attributed the influence of T.C. Williams to the choice of his major at Virginia Tech: Water: Resources Policy and Management in the school of Natural Resources and Environment.<\/p>\n<p>The Scholarship Fund of Alexandria is a nonprofit providing merit- and need-based scholarships and financial aid advising to Alexandria City Public School Students. Since 1986, SFA has awarded $12 million in scholarships, making college dreams come true for 4,361 students. In 2015 alone, 332 students were awarded $944,000 in scholarships.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7G5_SXmmlgc\" width=\"560\" height=\"314\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Here is a full list of the winners of the Class of 2016:<\/strong><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 99.842%;\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"10\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 31%;\" valign=\"top\"><strong>1971 Titans Scholarship<\/strong><br \/>\nIshrat Azim<br \/>\nDonor: Mr. Darryl Stanton<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 33%;\" valign=\"top\"><strong>Catherine Witeck Carter Memorial Scholarship<\/strong><br \/>\nClaudya Lee-Herrera<br \/>\nDonor: Bienvenidos, Inc.<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 30%;\" valign=\"top\"><strong>Fannon Scholarship<\/strong><br \/>\nLeoul Bekele<br \/>\nDonor: The Hon.\u00a0Francis H.\u00a0Fannon, IV<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 31%;\" valign=\"top\"><strong>21st Century University Scholarship<\/strong><br \/>\nFrancy Cabrera-Paz, Sarah Golemon-Mercer<br \/>\nDonor: The Scholarship Fund of Alexandria<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 33%;\" valign=\"top\"><strong>Charles B.
