Bridgette Borland

The Barbara Steinhauser Kalinowski Memorial Scholarship is funded by Bridgette Borland and aims to support high school seniors from Suffolk County, New York, who have benefited from extra help in elementary school. This scholarship honors the legacy of Barbara Kalinowski, a beloved kindergarten teacher in West Babylon, New York, who made a significant impact on her students' lives by encouraging effort and fostering a love for learning. The scholarship seeks to empower students to pursue higher education and recognize their potential, especially those who may not have received recognition for their hard work in school.
