New fund offers scholarships

The Montana Community Foundation has announced the formation of the Dearborn Ranch Scholarship Fund.

The Dearborn Ranch Scholarship Fund, established through a $1 million gift from The Thomas and Stacey Siebel Foundation, will award educational scholarships to the children of uniformed law enforcement officers of the Montana Highway Patrol and to the children of game wardens of Montana's Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks.

Each year the fund will provide 40 children of patrol officers and game wardens $2,500 scholarships to attend a Montana school of higher education.
