Marblehead Dollars for Scholars announces its sixth annual gift card fundraiser, “Let’s Eat!”
Established in 1987, this local nonprofit that provides financial, need-based scholarships to college students will partner with a variety of Marblehead eateries to raise scholarship funds.
Throughout the month of March, four businesses will donate 10% of all online or in-person gift card purchases to the organization. The vendors include: Shubie’s, The Landing, Sea Salt and Maria’s Gourmet.
Marblehead Dollars for Scholars president Jac Bentley says the need for scholarship dollars is great, noting that in 2025 the organization awarded scholarships to 47 college students totaling $224,000.
With the cost of college tuition and fees continually rising, there is a tremendous financial burden placed on families and the need for more scholarship dollars is real.
“We are grateful that these generous businesses are supporting us once again and we encourage everyone to get out and buy gift cards this month,” said Bentley.
