Dr. David Barkmeier was a brilliant scholar. Thanks to a legacy gift to the Marshall County Community Foundation (MCCF), generations of scholars will benefit from his passion for education at the highest levels.
A generous estate gift of $421,105 was recently added to contributions Dave made to MCCF during his lifetime. The Dr. David R. Barkmeier Top Research Universities Scholarship Fund supports Marshall County graduates pursuing higher education at top universities. On an annual basis, scholarships totaling approximately $18,000 will be awarded to students attending either the University of Notre Dame or a university that is a member of the Association of American Universities.
