"It just seemed appropriate to set aside funds to support students who are the first in their families to go to college. It's a life-changing step." Mary and Tom Southards grew up in different states, but shared similar goals. Both dreamed big in their small towns.

She was 20, and crossed the Atlantic for the first time. “It truly was life changing,” said Schmidt, who spent half a year near Nairobi’s Great Rift Valley, part of an intra-continental ridge system that runs through Kenya from north to south. “After that trip, I knew I wanted my career to be in the international arena.” PIVOTAL ROLE Nine years later, Schmidt has ...
