Our Donors Met the Challenge and NGL Doubled Your Dollars

Thanks to a generous donation match challenge issued by NGL, the Selected Educational Trust raised $26,000 in donations from Selected member firms, individuals, and supporting organizations between August 15 and October 2. Combined with the original pledge, these gifts brought the donation total to $36,000!

The money raised during this challenge will be used to enable the Trust to continue its important work of connecting independent funeral homes with the next generation of the profession, and to fund the Second-Career Scholarship Program for years to come.

There's still time to help us ensure the legacy of one of the Trust's most impactful scholarships. When making your online gift, choose '2nd Career Scholarship' in the dropdown for 'Your gift will support,' and your gift will go directly toward funding scholarships for students pursuing funeral service as a second career.
