WINNIE BROERS ESTATE AWARD The 2015 Winnie Broers Estate Award recipient Megan Schuster of Richmond, Kan. Schuster will receive $4,800 to study at Kansas State University. While at Butler, Schuster was highly involved in student life and academic activities, including Phi Beta Lambda, Ag Ambassadors, Grizzly Ambassadors, Phi Theta Kappa, a resident assistant, and more. In her application essay, Schuster said
“The most influential help I have received while attending Butler is financial support. Academic and Foundation scholarships have opened so many amazing doors for me. Continuing the cycle of giving is so important because without that critical financial support, some students would be unable to even attend school.” Schuster will continue her studies in Agribusiness at K-State this fall.
Due to the success of The Forever Butler Campaign, we have a variety of new scholarship, program support, and internship funds. It is because of our generous donors that we continue to make an impact in the lives of students, faculty, and staff through these endowed funds.
