William D. Squires was the Foundation's major donor.  What a wonderful legacy.  Many people assume that William passed away prior to the Foundation's inception.  He was actually witnessed the initial phases, the selection process, and even the graduation of our first recipients from the Class of 2000.    If you would like to learn more about William and the Foundation:  About the Foundation

Many of the recipients of The William D. Squires Scholarship have told us that it has made a huge difference.  Sometimes the scholarship is the deciding factor between which school to attend.  Sometimes it simply means more study time and less work.  If you would like to learn how you can help students follow their dreams, please visit:  How to donate. 

If you are graduating after 2008, please visit this Web site in December of your senior year.  We hope to continue awarding scholarships for many years.   The details of the scholarship may vary every year and will be announced when this Web site is updated in December. 

Good luck to all seniors in the Class of 2008
and may all your dreams come true!
