Provided by Crankstart Foundation
The Crankstart Foundation is a charitable organization started by Michael Moritz and his wife, Harriet. The Foundation primarily supports education but also impacts communities through arts & culture, as well as parks and human services. In 2016, the organization funded a scholarship program at Morgan State University, to support degree completion by adult learners. Since the initial award in 2016, the Crankstart Foundation has continued its support of non-traditional students by renewing the two-year agreement in 2018-2020 and in 2020-2021.
