Dr. Francis Henry Bledsoe Endowed Scholarship

The Dr. Francis Henry Bledsoe Endowed Scholarship Fund is a memorial fund established by his children in December of 2020. Education, learning, and self-improvement were Dr. Bledsoe’s lifetime quests. Likewise, the education of his children was of the utmost importance to him, and he provided them with excellent opportunities for learning. This scholarship was created so that others might also enjoy the benefits of education.
