BOLIVAR, Mo. 鈥� Russell and Orlando Taylor of Taylor-Made Roofing have given $50,000 to establish a new endowed scholarship at 欧美视频 鈥� the Vivian Sue Long Scholarship Fund.

The scholarship is designed to assist students based first on financial need with first preference going to students who have lost one or both parents to death, or students who enter 欧美视频 from the foster care system.

鈥淲e hope this scholarship is an inspiration to the fact that dreams can be accomplished,鈥� Orlando Taylor said. 鈥淚 hope that the recipients know that we truly care about them and how their college experiences shape their perspectives and ultimately their futures.鈥�

Vivian Sue Long was influential in the early years of Russell and Orlando Taylor鈥檚 lives, instilling in them traits and characteristics that have lasted multiple generations, according to Taylor-Made Roofing. Though she passed away during their early childhood, the Taylors have not forgotten the impact that she made in their lives. The memories of her free spirit, loving heart and kindness still resonate with them both. Through this scholarship, they hope to honor her tenacity and drive for raising up the next generation.

鈥淲e are thankful to Russell and Orlando Taylor for their support for Southwest Baptist University,鈥� said Dr. Brad Johnson, vice president for institutional advancement. 鈥淭his scholarship, honoring the life of Vivian Sue Long, will even further facilitate our work of preparing students for roles of leadership and service throughout the world.

鈥淪cholarships like this help extend our reach and expand our opportunity to influence our world for Christ.鈥�
