A new scholarship for students from communities without Latvian schools has been established at the Gaŗezers summer high school near Three Rivers, Mich.

The USD 500 scholarship, financed by a USD 10,000 endowment, was established by Kārlis and Anda Šteinmanis of Cincinnati, Ohio. Laura Šteinmane, their daughter, is among this year’s graduates of the summer high school.

The annual scholarship, announced by Kārlis Šteinmanis during the post-commencement concert at the high school, will go to a studious, continuing student who comes from a community—such as Cincinnati—where no Latvian school is present.
