The John Paul Magao Memorial Foundation is on its 11th year providing Scholarships to Redwood High School and College of the Seqouias.
Some call it drive.

Others call it ambition.

Whatever it may be, something must propel you forward to reach your goals.

Although his passions included ukulele and guitar when he was wasn't studying, he also shared an affinity for riding his Harley and Ducati motorcycles, a passion that tragically resulted in his death in 2007 when an accident claimed his life.

At the age of 20 John Paul Magao, a 2004 Redwood High School graduate with a GPA of 4.0, had plenty of fuel pushing him towards reaching his goals of becoming a pharmacist.

Since his death, though, his ambition lives on through the John Paul Magao Memorial Scholarship Foundation, which has annually raised funds for Redwood High School and College of the Sequoias students since 2008.
