Norall Family Scholarship
We are pleased to acknowledge a most generous gift by Burt and Maria Norall in memory of Cordie and Max McLain. The McLains were wealthy rice farmers from Burt's home town in Butte County who enabled him to attend UC Berkeley, by providing him with funds for his expenses. Burt chose to fully fund one of our scholarships each year in their names because he has seen how dedicated Maria and other Board members are, and he knew the full amount would actually go to a deserving student.
