Funding Our Future Meet the 2020 Sons of Norway Foundation scholarship recipients. The Sons of Norway Foundation was formed in 1966 as the charitable arm of Sons of Norway. Since its humble beginnings, the Foundation has grown with member support and now gives out over $130,000 every year in the form of scholarships to promising students and grants to Sons of Norway lodges, members and community partners. For students, these scholarships can provide a lasting connection to Norway and lead them to pursue opportunities they would not have imagined otherwise. For lodges, support for cultural events can draw in new members from the community and engage the interest of younger generations. For others, the grants that give back to members facing hardship or provide aid to children in a lodge's community can forge lasting connections that benefi t both sides for years to come. The Foundation would not exist without the generosity of Sons of Norway members. Inside your Viking magazine this month, you will fi nd a return envelope. We hope that you will consider sending in a check or donating online at sofn.com/give-your support is crucial in helping the Sons of Norway Foundation continue its important work. Here we celebrate our 2020 Sons of Norway Foundation scholarship recipients. Congratulations to these promising scholars! 1 VIKING OCTOBER 2020 sonsofnorway.comhttp://www.sofn.com/give-your http://www.sonsofnorway.com
