Scholarship Endowed In Memory Of Jason Ray

Posted Jun 23, 2008

In the wake of Jason Ray's tragic death in the spring of 2007, Ray's family requested donations instead of flowers. His parents knew he'd been involved with numerous causes before his death and wanted to be able to contribute to those groups after he was gone. This week, thanks to over $100,000 worth of contributions, the first steps will be taken to make that a reality. (Tar Heel Blue)
