McBride Legacy Scholarship Phase II

For the past couple of months members of the Legacy Scholarship Committee have been meeting to discuss the status of the fund. The purpose of these discussions was to determine what more we could do to support our McBride Legacy Scholarship Program.

At the 14th Annual McBride Throwback Night in January, Mike Hagenhoff ‘63 shared some highlights from the committee’s conversations.

• Since 2010, 100 Chaminade families have benefited from the McBride Legacy Scholarship totaling 139 students that have received an annual McBride Legacy Scholarship.

• The relatives of 126 McBride alums have received the scholarship.

• The Class of 2020 recipients have each received $5,250 from the McBride Legacy Scholarship if they attended Chaminade all 7 years.

• In total, 471 scholarship payments have been awarded for a total of $338,200.00.

Following Mike’s remarks Joe Nettemeyer ‘69 made a surprise announcement. Inspired and truly grateful for his Marianist education, Joe pledged to match gifts, dollar for dollar up to $250,000, made in support of the Phase II fundraising efforts.

If you would like to contribute to the Legacy Scholarship Fund and take advantage of the matching gift offer provided by Joe Nettemeyer, you can make a gift online via credit card at
