Empowered by You

2020-2021 Financial Support (as of June 30, 2021) EMPOWERED BY YOU

THE ROAN NEEDS YOU

Our world needs outstanding leaders. For the past 20+ years, The Roan has been developing and empowering Roan Scholars to be those leaders. We need your help to continue that work.

The Roan relies primarily on private gifts from individuals and organizations to fund (1) the scholarships that allow Scholars to attend ETSU; and (2) the unique out-of-the classroom experiences that challenge and inspire Scholars to learn, grow, and develop.

Your gifts make a difference – just look at the results and the stories throughout this annual report! Join us to help Roan Scholars become the outstanding leaders our region – and our world - need. Together, we will continue changing lives.
