Foresters believes that a good education gives young people a head start in life. Since 1983, when the inaugural grants were distributed, Foresters has awarded over 4,100 scholarships worth more than $20 million — that's more than 4,100 brighter futures.
We're very pleased to announce the new recipients of Foresters Competitive Scholarships beginning in the 2008-09 academic year. They will join the hundreds of previous winners who will be receiving their renewal scholarships for the upcoming year.
We are also proud of the two outstanding individuals who are receiving the Ken Peterson Award for Community Leadership. This special award recognizes young people who demonstrate exceptional leadership, extraordinary effort and significant ability to overcome adversity, and as a result, have become role models in their communities.
Congratulations to all recipients!

Mathew Lane
Everett, WA
"My Mom and Dad have always been generous people and that's how I was introduced to community service — through my parents. With the help of the Ken Peterson scholarship, I'll not only be able to go to university but I'll also be inspired to continue my community work. I hope to get involved in international service projects and also help out with rebuilding communities."

Ashley Logan (far right)
Hillsboro, OR
"Right now Ashley is in the Dominican Republic working with children at an orphanage. When I told her she'd received the Ken Peterson Award for Community Leadership, she was thrilled. We have three children to put through school and without this scholarship, this task would have been overwhelming. Foresters member benefits have made a world of difference to our family." Ashley's mother — Suzi Logan
