Give to the Fund
Financial gifts to the Marlyn and Ann Jorgensen Family Scholarship Fund with the Benton County Community Foundation allows the Community Foundation to award financial assistance to students pursuing higher education. As the cost of tuition continues to rise, it is more important now than ever to diminish the barrier of affordability and allow students to focus on what is most important - their education.
