Almost a month ago, we wrote about efforts to help a local father and veteran who has been diagnosed with terminal cancer.
Fundraising continues to create a scholarship in Ervin Schoolfield’s name and to provide evening meals for his two children. Fellow parent/mentors of the Red Nation Robotics team are spearheading the effort, but help is still needed.
Parent/mentor Naomi Lohmann said the scholarship has about $470 of a needed $3,000 so far, but the group is not giving up hope of funding a scholarship during Schoolfield’s lifetime. The story was also featured on local television, but information on how to donate was not given, she said.
