Warren A. & Betty M. Kahle Memorial Endowment Fund

Established 2006

Warren A. & Betty M. Kahle
Warren A. & Betty M. Kahle

This fund was created upon the receipt of a bequest from the estate of Betty Kahle.

The fund provides grants to the First Presbyterian Church of Aurora for the Sunday School and Christian Education Programs.

Warren Kahle (1921-1996) was a graduate of North Central College. He served in the United States Navy during World War II and was stationed in England and Ireland.

He was an assistant purchasing agent at Barber-Greene Company until his retirement in 1982.

Betty Kahle (1919-2005) was a graduate of East Aurora High School. She was employed for over forty years at the Child City of Mooseheart.

She served as executive assistant to five successive directors, including the period of the promotion and completion of the Mooseheart House of God.

Mr. and Mrs. Kahle were members of the First Presbyterian Church of Aurora.

There’s no question in my mind that the scholarship I received opened up possibilities.

…you can always start small, even $25 can make a difference. Remember we can’t take our money with us. Even if it’s just your gift of time. Volunteer and get involved.

Thank you very much for supporting my college education for these four years. I will never be able to repay you for the opportunity that this scholarship has given to me.

A community foundation is a donor-driven organization that helps donors custom-design funds that reflect their charitable interests. Through the years, grants from these funds have made a significant impact on our local communities.

Sharon Stredde

President Emeritus

We chose the Community Foundation because of its reputation. It’s well known, established and we can trust them to do the job for us.

Richard and Susan Schindel Scholarship Funds

As a first-generation college student from a low-income family, I was worried about how I was going to pay for books and supplies. This scholarship will allow me to focus more on my studies instead of worrying about how to afford college. I am working to not only create opportunities for myself but to motivate future generations. Thank you so much for helping me along this journey!
