In May 2013, the YMI presented a total of $75,000 to three Catholic High Schools in San Mateo county. Specifically, the YMI gave $25,000 checks to Serra, Notre Dame and Mercy Burlingame High Schools to fund a new YMI scholarship program at each high school. For at least the next 10 years, each high school, in turn, will award a $2500 scholarship on behalf of the YMI to a deserving Junior student, who is a Catholic and whose family has a demonstrated financial need.

The YMI was able to make this generous donation as a result of being a beneficiary of the Noel Miller trust. A stipulation of the trust distribution was that the funds were to be used to support youth in San Mateo County.
