Jim had deep convictions, circumstances challenging them. He held to his beliefs, especially under pressure. He knew the way to achieve came through hard work and education. He understood that the long hours, competition, persistence and commitment came from within. The Foundations mission is to grant educational scholarships to seniors, who have exhibited the attributes Jim’s foundation is built on. Jim believed that true success came from respect. You learned to respect yourself, and in it, came to respect others. He understood that in the hearts and minds of young men and women, who dare to live beyond their circumstances, our heritage is born. 

It is alive and well for those who know what character, integrity, virtue and honor are,…because it is in them.

​What we do??

We find, select and support individuals who hope to work in the fields of the creative arts and sciences, who through no fault of their own, are unable to afford higher education.

How we do what we do??

We advertise our scholarship information locally, evaluate applications, verify that all recipients meet the minimum criteria, (which can be found in the Guidelines) and finally we search for those applicants who have made, and are making a contribution to their community. Giving and serving others produces the virtues we value. We respect applicants who have done the hard work of being “other-centered”, those who have spent their days giving their time, and attention in ways that benefit someone other than themselves, while maintaining their academics. We look for students who have already shown that they can balance employment, community service, academics, athletics, family and often more.
