OVERVIEW

About the Fund

When a teenage student from South Pasadena was killed in a tragic automobile accident in 2002, his parents joined with his employer in honoring him by establishing the Sina Massoumi Memorial Scholarship fund. Awarded each year to a South Pasadena High School student who exemplifies Sina’s love of music and sports, the scholarship keeps alive the values and memory of an outstanding young scholar, athlete, and musician.
