Our Financials

Checking the Numbers

MOST fulfills its mission of providing scholarships and information about Memphis-area schools through the generosity of our founder, Robert M. Solmson, Children’s Scholarship Fund in New York, and our growing number of friends: individuals, groups, foundations and corporations.  We work hard to keep our administrative costs low so that as much of our funding as possible can go directly to scholarships.  In fact, the support of our board members and the proceeds from our annual golf tournament underwrite all administrative costs, so that all other unrestricted gifts can be used for scholarships.

Making the MOST of your Gifts!
