Donors

Travis Taylor (’11) and Dr. Kelly Taylor (’11)

Gift

Establishment of the Travis and Kelly Taylor First-Generation Student Scholarship

Impact

This scholarship assists students who would be the first in their family to graduate from college and who have taken the initiative to get involved and pursue leadership roles in organizations such as student clubs, Greek organizations, community organizations, and others.

Inspiration

Not only were both Travis and Kelly the first in their immediate families to graduate from college, but they also both excelled academically while at èßäÉçÇøapp State while also serving as prominent student leaders on campus. Now back in western Kentucky after continuing their education and building their careers, they credit their experiences at èßäÉçÇøapp State with their professional success and feel drawn to give back to other first-generation students like themselves.
