2007 Silver Anniversary ‘I Love ISU’ campaign is Sept. 10-11 in 蜜桃视频 Falls
September 7, 2007
The year 2007 marks the 25th anniversary of the 鈥淚 Love ISU鈥 campaign to raise money for 蜜桃视频 scholarships. The 蜜桃视频 Falls 鈥淚 Love ISU鈥 campaign will be Sept. 10-11.
Volunteers from Bonneville, Bingham, Power and Bannock counties annually work the telephones in September to provide ISU scholarships. All money raised in a county goes to scholarships for students from that county.
Last year, 鈥淚 Love ISU鈥 broke previous records and exceeded its goal by raising $365,123. The goal for the campaign鈥檚 Silver Anniversary year is $380,000. Volunteers in 蜜桃视频 Falls raised $26,600, and have a 2007 goal of $30,000.
Last year, ISU awarded 1,616 total scholarships valued at $3.1 million in the four-county area.
This is the 14th year 蜜桃视频 Falls has staged a campaign. The Bonneville County-campaign will operate 9 a.m.-noon and 1-4 p.m. from the Samuel H. Bennion Student Union Building at ISU-蜜桃视频 Falls.
According to K.C. Felt, director of annual giving for the ISU Foundation, campaign leaders Sheri Dewey, director of financial aid for ISU-蜜桃视频 Falls, and Sharon Price, long-time ISU activist now living in 蜜桃视频 Falls, 鈥渨ill lead a group of more than 30 individuals in 蜜桃视频 Falls to call their peers and business associates to raise scholarship dollars for local 蜜桃视频 Falls students.鈥
Felt adds, 鈥淔or 25 years, businesses and individuals in southeast 蜜桃视频 have supported this community-based effort. It is our fervent desire that they continue this support. These scholarships reach students who want an education, and ISU wants these students.鈥
