The Frances M. Gibbs Memorial Scholarship Endowment

Frances M. Gibbs, who was denied an education herself, put two girls through college during the Great Depression and told all six of her grandchildren that getting an education was the most important thing a person could do. Her granddaughter, Rosemary Bennett, listened and it made all the difference in her life.
