The Starke County Community Foundation (SCCF) Ambassadors Club recently awarded a series of pop-up grants to show appreciation to local schools and help in assisting student needs.
North Judson-San Pierre, Knox, and Oregon-Davis Schools were each awarded a $1,000 pop-up grant during the month of December.
SCCF Ambassador Club members Barbara McLaughlin, Dave Altman, and Cheryl Orkis presented the pop-up grant to Knox Superintendent Dr. William Reichhart and to North-Judson San Pierre Superintendent Dr. Annette Zupin.
SCCF Director of Development Jacque Ryan and Cheryl Orkis delivered the Oregon-Davis grant to Superintendent Bill Bennett and Jr./Sr. High School Principal Emily Duvall.
The SCCF Ambassadors Club exists to keep previous representatives involved with the SCCF’s philanthropic work. The club consists of former board members, fund founders, and the current SCCF board president.
