VILLAGE PHARMACY HAS SUPPORTED CSF OF BGM SINCE BEGINNING

Bill and Jane Alexander, owners of the Village Pharmacy here in Brooklyn and in Victor continued their support of the Citizens Scholarship Foundation of BGM (a Dollars for Scholars Chapter). A check for $100.00 was received from the Village Pharmacy. The Village Pharmacy has made a contribution to the Foundation every year since the Foundation began.

I talked with Bill and he said that "He and Jane have continued their support of the CSF of BGM because of the great job they feel the Foundation has done with awarding scholarships to our graduating seniors going on to higher education. Only thru a community effort can the Foundation grow and be the best we can make it".

The Foundation wishes to thank Bill, Jane and everyone at the Village Pharmacy for their continued support.

Many Dollars for Scholars Chapters look at the CSF of BGM and wish they could be as succsssful as we have been. You can and should be very proud of the CSF of BGM because you have made a difference and continue to help our students. You can never wear out the saying that is on the CSF of BGM’s letterhead. "Where People help their Neighbors Pay for College and Are Proud of It!".

Anyperson, organization or club wishing to make a contribution to the Foundation please contact Marie Roudabush, Board of Trustee representative for the City of Brooklyn, or any other Board member. You can also write to Box 469, Brooklyn, Iowa 52211.
