This scholarship was established through contributions to UW-Eau Claire by alumni and other associates employed by LarsonAllen as a manifestation of their esteem for the excellent job done in preparation of accountants for the profession. The purpose of this fund is to recognize the contributor’s high regard for broad participation in activities, academic and non-academic, and their desire to enhance educational opportunities for young people. The recipient should send a thank-you letter to LarsonAllen in care of the UW-Eau Claire Foundation, S-214.
