Celebrating Unsung Heroes: Scholarships for the Critical Middle Kids

About the Sponsor

We are all born with unique talents, each one a potential thread in the fabric of society. Some craft melodies that move the soul, others conquer marathons or capture nature’s beauty with a brush. Some have a gift for memory, while others rebuild engines, build houses or grow crops that nourish us. Then, there are those with a deep love, respect and caring for others, especially children.
