The Faithe Family Scholarship Endowment was designed to recognize University of South Dakota students who demonstrate high achievement, plan to serve the healthcare delivery system and who show financial need. The Faithe Family gave an $8.7 million scholarship fund in 2005 to the University of South Dakota’s School of Health Sciences to support students studying healthcare.
