Samson Eberhart's Endowed Scholarship Fund Page

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!  Over the past 11 years, I have had the humbling opportunity to serve on the Bootstraps Board of Directors and have advised and supported the organization as it fulfills its worthy mission.  My roles on the Board have varied and my passion for Bootstraps runs deep, as does my history with the organization.  I have experienced FIRST-HAND the impact the organization's support has on the trajectory of someone's life, as I was a recipient of a Bootstraps scholarship when I graduated high school in 2009.  With the financial support I received, I was able to attend the University of Denver, obtain my bachelor's degree, and then begin my career in banking where I could use my time, talent, and treasure to give back to an organization that had done so much for me.  Now, as I turn the page on my time on the Board (my term is ending at the end of 2023), I've decided to further "pay it forward" by creating an endowed scholarship that, when fully funded, will support graduating high school students who (like me) were struggling to afford their higher education.  This fund will be administered by Bootstraps and will provide (in perpetuity) a need-based scholarship to support a Conifer High School graduate's pursuit of their higher education dreams.  Any amount you give (even those $10 gifts) are greatly appreciated and will help me get toward my goal to have this fund created. 

THANK YOU!
