History

Warren and Evelyn Foster dedicated decades of their time, energy, and money to support organizations that provide care and opportunities to people in need. They have been named Humanitarians of the Year by Holmes Regional Medical center, in addition to their other philanthropic awards. Although much of their work has focused on the American Cancer Society, the couple made a $50,000 gift to the Florida Institute of Technology in April of 1987. The purpose of the endowment has been to support students who are Florida residents with outstanding academic performance in need of financial assistance. The Fosters donated an additional $25,000 to the fund during 2001-2002 in order to pledge for the campaign for a Rising Star.
