Application available February 1, 2022 for the 2022-2023 academic year.

The Lois Gwynn Timm Endowment for Veterans and Family was established to honor the memory of Lois Gwynn Timm. Lois was a wife, mother, grandmother, daughter and sister to numerous members of the United States Armed Forces. This endowment honors Lois and her life-long support of family by honoring and supporting those who have served our country and, specifically, the spouses of those who have served. The purpose of this endowment is to support those who have spent their lives supporting veterans.
