Mather alumni met with Claflin University President Henry N. Tisdale (seated, second from left) in Fall 2013 to commemorate the establishment of the “Boylan Haven Mather Academy Alumni Memorial Scholarship” at Claflin. BHMA alumni and other supporters raised $22,970.89 during a two-year campaign. Surrounding President Tisdale are (seated, from left): Geneva Belton Williams ('40); BHMA National Alumni Association President Jeronell White Bradley ('65); Cora Jenkins, widow of Sylvester Jenkins ('49); and Edwina Williams ('67). Standing (from left): William Durant ('66), Henrietta Carter Pope ('45), Dr. Eloise Bishop ('65), Delmarcia Jenkins Mitchell ('75), and BHMA Alumni Treasurer Knorphe Byrd ('73). The campaign is ongoing.

That's why we voted in 2010 to establish a scholarship at Claflin, a prestigious academic institution of similar origins. The scholarship will serve as a "baton" to future generations from the young people who came through Mather's doors and went on to make this a better world.
We will preserve the vision of founder Sarah Babcock, and the spirit of Lula B. Bryan, Evelyn "Ma" Gittens, John Roy Harper Sr., Mary Dorn, Thelma Walker, Barbara Boultinghouse and many others who believed education is an indispensable avenue to achievement for African Americans.
