The big announcement of the evening was made by the executive director of the United Way of Washington County Kristie Brandner.

 

“It is our honor and privilege to announce the creation of the Doug and Sharon Ziegler Leadership Scholarship Fund,” said Brandner.

 

 

“This scholarship will continue to demonstrate the love, the passion and the drive the Zieglers have for local nonprofit organizations.”

The fund will be used for training and development for non-profit leaders to help equip them for the current and next generation of leaders in the community.
