To help ensure that the Beverly Burton Scholarship Trust can meet the scholarship commitments every year, earnings from the endowment will be used to fund the scholarships.  Under this model the trust can award annual scholarships without depleting the funds that are raised.  90% of all monies raised will be invested to produce the earnings necessary for funding scholarships. 

Roe Burton, Beverly’s husband, has pledged to fund the first 2 years scholarship commitments. This will allow the trust to focus solely on growth.  Our immediate goal is to raise $500,000 by year end and we are well on our way.
