Prince George's County REALTORS® Award $10,000 in Scholarships to High School Seniors at the April 13th Maclin 5K

On Saturday April 13, PGCAR hosted the 8th Annual Maclin Fun Run. Over 100 runners and volunteers came out on a beautiful morning to run, walk, dance, mingle and network while, in turn, supporting the David and Juanita Maclin Memorial Scholarship Fund. We raised $5,108 for the Scholarship Fund!

The Prince George's County Association of REALTORS® instituted the David and Juanita Maclin Memorial Scholarship Fund in memory of REALTOR® David Maclin, the 2006 PGCAR President.

David and Juanita contributed to the economic development of Prince George's County, and they were key contributors to the growth and development of area churches. Their efforts were acknowledged by numerous awards, certifications, and special recognitions.

In addition to their service to the community, David and Juanita served the REALTORS® of Prince George's County and Maryland in many capacities. David was twice named REALTOR ® of the year by PGCAR and was named Maryland's REALTOR® of the Year posthumously in 2007, and his wife Juanita had served on PGCAR committees.

It is because of their many contributions to the community, that the Prince George's County Association of REALTORS® established the David & Juanita Maclin Memorial Scholarship Fund in 2008. Based on the theme "How I made a difference in my Community," the Scholarship Fund awards college scholarships to Prince George's County High School seniors who are actively engaged in their communities.

To date, the Scholarship Fund has provided over $80,000 in scholarships to students graduating from Prince George's County High Schools.
