MJT Herrendorf Family Foundation Scholarships

MJT  SCHOLARSHIPS AND AWARDS

The Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour is pleased to present annual awards for the MJT Players of the Year, Order of Merit Winners and MJT Scholarships.

In 2022, the MJT is delighted to announce renewed sponsorship of the Scholarship Program by the Herrendorf Family Foundation (HFF).

Herrendorf Family Foundation: Hershel Herrendorf was born in Haifa Israel on July 8, 1949. Following his family’s move to the United States in 1965, and his successful life in Chicago, Hershel passed suddenly in 2014, leaving his family with a foundation and legacy they hold dear. The Herrendorf Family Foundation invests in strategic partnerships with global change leaders. Together, they advocate for education, empowerment and generational resilience. In 2021, the Herrendorf Family Foundation launched their wrap-around umbrella “We Got You”, which includes scholarships, emergency grants, support for mothers, contributing partnerships and community engagement.
