DOLORES SAXTON-WALKER SCHOLARSHIPS
The late Dolores Saxton-Walker was a successful entrepreneur who worked diligently on
behalf of the mission of ChicagoMSDC. She understood the importance of developing
future entrepreneurs by supporting students with excellent academic achievement and
leadership skill. ChicagoMSDC’s Minority Business Enterprise Input Committee
established the Dolores Saxton-Walker Scholarship in honor of her commitment to
develop young leaders.
Award recipients receive $3,000 toward college tuition and/or expenses. This year we
will award 11 students with scholarships thanks to the generosity of several individuals,
great organizations, supporters of last year’s golf scholarship classic fundraiser and very
special minority business owners.
The 2022 recipients epitomize the talents that are critical to successful entrepreneurship
and citizenship. Following are the 2022 Dolores Saxton-Walker Scholarship Recipients:
ChicagoMSDC is con�nously raising funds in order to support scholarships for deserving
students from Chicago Public High Schools. Please contact Regina Newson,
