– Funds will support scholarships for first generation and outstanding students –
The Board of Trustees of the Patrick F. Taylor Foundation have presented Louisiana Tech University with a gift of $920,000 to fund scholarships for first generation and academically outstanding students.
2015 marks the 30 year anniversary of the Patrick F. Taylor Foundation. The Taylors started the Foundation in 1985 as a gesture of thanks to the nation that had given them so much. Although best known for its work in education through the promotion of the Taylor Plan, the Foundation also supports law enforcement, the military, and other community and humanitarian efforts. Since its founding, the Foundation’s total gifts and commitments in these areas total more than $53 million to more than 475 organizations in Louisiana and across the United States.
