2009 Scholarship Award Winners
In 2009, the Lucretia H. Richter Scholarship Committee hosted its annual luncheon for
the purpose of awarding scholarships to this year's recipients. Committee and many other members of
the Scholarship Fund organization recognized five outstanding local
nursing students for their academics, their commitments to nursing and their prospects for successful
careers in nursing. Each was introduced by a Committee member, and the details of their nursing education
highlighted by their sponsor from the Nursing Department of their school. Each was then presented with a
check for $1,000.00 in recognition of their excellence.
Below are pictured the winners of the Lu Richter Scholarships and, indiviually, with their sponsors, their
presenters, and some family members. The Committee wishes to thank all students who applied for this
