THANK YOU!

Big thanks to everyone for continuing to support the Bruce Viernow Scholarship Foundation! We raised $2,200 at the Tailgate event on Saturday. Because of your generosity, we’re able to fund two annual scholarships at Glenbard West and have increased those scholarship amounts.

It was great to see everyone able to attend!
