Campbell

Team Tyler would like to use his story to help others. Tyler wanted to become a social worker or a juvenile resource officer to help at- risk children. To do this his family has decided to start the Operation 11, Tyler Schaeffer Memorial Scholarship. This scholarship will help students who are pursuing a degree in Social Work or Criminal Justice.

After my mother passed away from gastric cancer, I felt drawn towards cancer research but felt discouraged as a woman in STEM. I hope to encourage a future generation of researchers like myself to believe in their abilities and to push research forward, as physicians, and scientists.

Breanden Beneschott

Kate Smith

This fund is dedicated to the Kelly O. Memorial Nursing Scholarship. Kelly O was highly skilled, eternally compassionate, and dedicated to serving others. Her smile lit the room, and her humor made the hard days easier. To help continue her legacy, a nursing scholarship has been established in her name, and we invite you to be part of this award. Please consider a gift of $50-$100, or more if you wish, to help a deserving student follow down the path in our friend's honor. Kelly O's short time here made a positive impact on so many patients lives and hopefully that can be carried out in perpetuity through this scholarship.

Lewis Family

My mom recently passed and she was hugely involved in the community. She was the high school volleyball coach for 18+ years, and still helped even after she retired, she was a member of the chamber of commerce, and the school's booster club. She was a beloved chaperone for school trips long after her own kids graduated. She was a champion for giving people the tools to make the most of what they had to succeed. We feel that creating a scholarship in her honor to help the students in our area is a good way to honor her legacy of support and commitment to the community she served, lived in and loved.
