Brendan is turned 15 May 1st, 2019! For his birthday he wanted to raise money for his scholarship for Ventura County Foster Youth! He set a goal of $2,000, and with the generosity of friends and family, he reached his goal!

This scholarship was started in 2016 by Mark Acosta from PennyMac. A long-time supporter and volunteer with CSA (Children’s Services Auxiliary). He wanted a way to honor his son and chose to do it through creating this scholarship fund in his name. Brendan Acosta was adopted through Ventura County Foster Care in 2006.  While still young in age, Brendan is very mature in his love for people and their education. Fostering the Future was created to show his gratitude and that of his family for the resources and effort expended in affording him a bright future.
