Edison International, the parent company of Southern California Edison, has announced the names of 30 southern California high school seniors awarded $1.2 million in scholarships to support their dreams to make a difference in the world through the study of science, technology, engineering or math — known as STEM. Six of the students attend Inland Empire schools.

Each Edison Scholar will receive $40,000 — paid over four years — to further their academic pursuit of STEM fields at a four-year accredited college or university.

The 2018 Inland Empire Edison Scholars are:  

  • Travis Caldwell, Oak Hills High School
  • Winnie Huang, Kaiser High School, Fontana
  • Shanni Lam, Colony High School, Ontario

We believe these Edison Scholars will use their STEM studies to make a real difference in our communities.”

Edison International is one of the largest charitable contributors in Southern California and its support of charitable causes, such as the Edison Scholars Program, is funded entirely by Edison International shareholders. SCE customers’ utility bill payments do not fund company donations.
