Scholarships don’t just help students attend Maine Maritime Academy — they open the door to life-changing experiences and careers.

For Mackenzie Morin, a student in the Coastal and Marine Environmental Science and Small Vessel Operations dual major, scholarship support made the ...difference. Alumni generosity helped make her decision to attend MMA possible and allowed her to focus on opportunities like sailing aboard Schooner Bowdoin on an Arctic voyage — an experience few undergraduates anywhere ever have.

Now, through independent senior research and hands-on learning, Mackenzie is building the foundation for the career she’s always imagined.

Her story is just one example of how scholarships transform lives and prepare the next generation of maritime and environmental leaders.

Join us for A Night by the Bay 2026 on March 27 as we celebrate the power of philanthropy and raise critical scholarship support for MMA students.
