NON-PROFIT US POSTAGE PAID HUNTINGTON, WV PERMIT 206 RETURN SERVICE REQUESTED ONE JOHN MARSHALL DRIVE HUNTINGTON, WV 25755-6021 @MARSHALLFOUNDATION @MUFOUNDATION @THEMUFOUNDATION THANK YOU to our donors. “As a first generation college student I am grateful for the financial generosity I’ve received at Marshall University. It has brought me another step closer to my career goals and inspires me to contribute in the future. The opportunity to meet my donors has allowed me to create a personal connection with them and exchange stories about our experiences in this community. I will be graduating this spring with a Master of Arts in Music Education and Performance, a feat I could never have accomplished without the unwavering support of our donors.” - Phillip Sebastian “I was fortunate to be seated directly next to one of my scholarship donors, Phil Cline, at the scholarship brunch this year, and I was able to share with Mr. Cline just how important the scholarships I received have been for my education. In my final year of high school, I looked throughout the country to try and find a university that fit my needs. The privately-funded scholarships drew me to Marshall University and Huntington when I did not have any other ties to the region. Because of scholarships like these, students like myself are attracted to West Virginia, and might just end up calling it their home.” - Steven Schumann “This scholarship is a blessing to me. This award is a symbol of hope in addition to a sign that proper steps are being taken towards my career as a pharmacist. This award will push me further toward my pharmaceutical degree and my dreams of one day having a successful career as a research pharmacist. Being the first generation in my family to attend a professional institution, I have always aspired to succeed in all that I do. I also believe in giving back to my community by helping others in financial crisis, so they won’t have the same financial burdens that I had growing up.” - Bisodun Joyce Ishola Bisodun Joyce Ishola (left) is the recipient of the Janis Winkfield Scholarship.
