|
Christine Smith served as a member of the Educational Foundation, IOOF for 24 years. Her generosity through her estate has initiated the Educational Foundation's Graduate Studies Scholarship to respond to the need for research and study focused on Children & Family issues. The scholars who will receive the $15,000 Christine Smith Graduate Studies Scholarships will conduct critical inquiry and evaluation that impacts the disadvantaged and underserved, becoming highly trained professionals working in the area of social intervention after completing a specialized program at the masters or doctoral level addressing the needs of society relating to Children & Family issues.
The Educational Foundation has already implemented fund raising efforts to supplement the bequest so that a scholarship of $15,000 can be awarded. Approximately two-thirds of the necessary funds to endow the Scholarship are already in hand. the Foundation looks forward to the first Christine Scholar to be named in 2004.
