SCPM Surpasses Scholarship $1 Million Matching Gift Goal

 

Rosalind Franklin University has announced it has successfully met and exceeded its historic $1 Million Scholl Matching Gift Challenge months ahead of schedule, significantly boosting scholarships and resources for students preparing to heal, serve, and transform lives. Building on this momentum, RFU has launched a new matching gift initiative, the Richard M. Evans, DPM '71, and Katherine Evans Challenge Match.

The couple behind both matches, the Evanses have stepped forward to publicly renew their investment in Dr. William M. Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine. Their support reflects the collective generosity of dedicated alumni and community partners motivated by a dollar-for-dollar match to expand scholarship opportunities for deserving students. Working in podiatric medicine significantly changed our lives, and we've seen the impact our work can have on the quality of life for our patients and how that extends to our community," Dr. Evans said.
