About the Donors

In 2021, the endowment that supports the Anna Elizabeth Butler Memorial Scholarship was established in memory of Anna Elizabeth Butler. Anna, a Triple Dawg, was a fierce and enthusiastic advocate for people with disabilities. She dedicated her life to serving the community through her volunteer work and professional endeavors. As an instructor and supervisor, she was determined to see people who needed the most support and care succeed. Anna will forever be revered by the students and faculty who had the pleasure to know her and witness her live with intention.
