Dear Community Member,

On the evening of Saturday, October 19, 2024, we will come together for a cause that touches the heart of our community—the Oscar Ledesma Memorial Scholarship Foundation fundraising event. Held at the beautiful R.O.A.D. Ranch in Fallbrook, CA, this event promises an epic night filled with delicious food, refreshments, raffles, and exciting auctions, both silent and live, featuring mid to high-value items. We will enjoy music, entertainment, and, most importantly, the company of people like you who care deeply about our youth and their futures.

The Oscar Ledesma Memorial Scholarship Foundation was established in 2022 to honor the life of Oscar Ledesma, who tragically lost his life to Fentanyl exposure. Oscar was actively involved in youth agriculture activities and showing livestock across the country. His great success in these areas, along with the enormous number of friends and support he gained within the community, made a profoundly positive impact on his life. In his memory, we aim to raise awareness about the dangers of drugs and to support deserving high school seniors in San Diego who are pursuing higher education. Dedicated to giving back to a community that was so instrumental in Oscar’s life, these scholarships are exclusively offered to students actively enrolled in 4-H, FFA, or Grange agriculture youth programs.

The awards recognize students who have demonstrated a combination of scholastic achievement, leadership potential, active involvement in agricultural projects, and a strong commitment to their education and community. To be considered, students must pledge to live and pursue a drug-free life.

The Oscar Ledesma Memorial Scholarship Foundation is an approved 501(c)(3) charitable organization (Federal Tax Identification No. 88-2471020). Your donation will be gratefully acknowledged in all presentations, receptions, our website, and other communications throughout the following year.

On behalf of the Oscar Ledesma Memorial Scholarship Foundation committee and board members, we extend our deepest gratitude for your generosity and for helping us make a difference.

Sincerely,

Oscar Ledesma Memorial Scholarship Foundation Board Members
