Congratulations to our 2026 Scholarship recipients!

The UM Club of Greater Detroit was proud to honor these incoming freshman and their families tonight at the annual scholarship dinner.

Club President Tim Horvath said it best: These students exemplify the very best of the club tenants in academics, athletics and giving back to their communities. They all have extremely impressive backgrounds and we know they will shine during their years at the University of Michigan and beyond.

Thanks to Ayanna McConnell and the Alumni Association of the University of Michigan for coming out and supporting this great event. It was a great way to tell the students that we are their for them during their time at UM and long after. They join a special group that they can always lean on for the rest of their lives.
