Libby High School Educational Trust supports local students
The Libby High School Educational Trust has awarded three scholarships to Libby High School graduates.
Each received a $1,000 scholarship from the trust and will be furthering their educations at universities and colleges locally and nationally.
The honorees include:
- Tyler Andersen, son of Cory Andersen, is interested in pre-med and will be attending Whitworth University in Spokane, Washington.
- Samantha St. Onge, daughter of Sommer Navarro, will be attending Flathead Valley Community College in Kalispell studying Culinary Arts.
- Johnny Shao, son of Xittany Shao, is going to the University of Buffalo in New York.
The Libby High School Educational Trust was established in 1988 to provide scholarships for worthy students that are graduates of Libby High School and who may be in need of financial assistance to obtain additional education.
Applications are available at Libby High School.
Donations to the trust are always welcomed and encouraged. LHS Trust has awarded more than $70,000 in scholarships. Only the interest earned is used to provide scholarships so the trust will continue to benefit future Libby High School students.
Trustees of the fund are Nancy Chalgren, Jim Sullivan, Niles Nelson Linda Buti and Juli Cooper.
Anyone wanting more information or wishing to donate to the Trust may contact any of the Trustees.
