The RMCC Scholarship Fund In Honor Of Jose Morales
The RMCC Scholarship Fund in Honor of Jose Morales was established in 2002 in honor of former Royal Melbourne Country Club Caddie Master, Jose Morales. The fund was established by the membership of the Club, with full cooperation of the management and staff, to show appreciation to all the employees at Royal Melbourne CC for their dedicated service to the Members. It is the desire of the membership and Employee Scholarship Committee to encourage the employees to further their education. The Employee Scholarship Committee was established to maintain the charitable status of the Fund, raise money, administer the scholarship funds and establish the requirements of the scholarship eligibility.
Please see below for more information on eligibility and how to donate.
