Marvin W. and Rosaline A. Brandau Scholarship

The Marvin W. and Rosaline A. Brandau Scholarship Fund was established as a lasting tribute to long time Jackson residents, Marvin and Rosaline Brandau. The Brandaus did not have children of their own and their formal schooling was limited. "They realized, however, that the world of today is far different than what they experienced and that education is a requirement, regardless of one's chosen work. It is their desire that those receiving financial assistance from the scholarship would continue their legacy of hard work, improving one's self and helping others." - Chad Noble, nephew
