The BNSF Foundation has awarded scholarships to 33 dependents of BNSF employees, retirees and deceased personnel in recognition of their outstanding high school academic achievements. Each high school senior will receive a $2,500 scholarship, renewable annually for four years.
The foundation established the scholarship program to recognize and reward outstanding academic achievement and to assist a limited number of college-bound children of BNSF employees with some college expenses.
