We didn't do it alone... 2021 Scholarship Recipients

Garbe 2021- Mason Vosters.jpg

“This scholarship means the world to me. Receiving this scholarship means that I did not let adversity defeat me. I instead defeated adversity. It was not easy to do, but I did it and achieved everything I ever wanted to.”

Mason Vosters, Riley Garbe Scholarship recipient

Mason is joined by 55 other scholarship recipients this year. Many of these young men and women are motivated to make a difference through pursuing degrees in nursing, teaching and other careers on the frontlines.

Brian's Foundation continues to award scholarships in 17 states and 3 foreign countries. We did not do this alone. The school guidance offices, sponsors, selection committees and presenters go above and beyond to make this a life-changing experience for each and every recipient.
