The Fernon Feenstra Scholarship Program
The Fernon Feenstra Scholarship Program, funded by the Livonia Kiwanis, provides several scholarships each year to high school students in demonstrating a desire to better themselves through education and a passion to help others through community service.
Fernon Feenstra was one of the Founding Members of the Livonia Kiwanis Club in 1981. Described by Livonia's Mayor as "Mr. Sunshine", Fernon's positive attitude and philanthropic outlook will always be remembered. It is our honor to name this scholarship program after him and our hope that the award recipients will also enrich the lives of others in their communities for decades to come. |
