2008 Initiatives
Scholarships
Goal: To double the number of students served from 250 in 2006 to 500 by 2010. The need for student financial assistance far outweighs the resources.
Military Families Scholarship Endowment
Goal: $1 million endowment to recognize the contribution of military families. While there are financial aid programs available to the men and women of our armed services, it is their family members that often suffer and go without the opportunity to advance their education due to financial hardship.
Nursing and Allied Health
Goal: $7 million to build an endowment for nursing and allied health programs, provide access through scholarships and grants, enhance facilities and equipment, and deliver distance education to rural communities.
