At Capacity, we believe in celebrating not only the dedication of our team members but also the bright futures of their families. The Allen Kaiden Scholarship Award is a testament to this commitment, recognizing the exceptional academic promise of students whose parents have been part of our organization for at least one year.
This distinguished scholarship honors the memory and enduring legacy of Allen Kaiden, the late father of our CEO, Jeff Kaiden, and reflects our values of growth, opportunity, and community. We are proud to support these outstanding students as they pursue their education.
