Borderline Initiative and Mark Bertel Award Scholarships to ASUMH Students
Two Arkansas State University Mountain Home students recently were awarded scholarships by Borderline Initiative, an outreach of Borderline Clothing and Supply, and Mark Bertel. Borderline Clothing and Supply is a Midwest lifestyle clothing company from Mountain Home, AR. This Midwest-based company is proud to work with a number of other small businesses to keep production, manufacturing, and processing 100% local and give back to the small towns they work with.
Savannah Barker received the Borderline Initiative Scholarship. Her essay describing her favorite outdoor activity -- hiking -- described how she strives to make a difference in the world by picking up trash while hiking with friends. Savannah is a Funeral Science student at ASUMH.
Jordan Anderson received the Vernon Bertel Scholarship. He will be pursuing Mechatronics at ASUMH in the fall. The Vernon Bertel Scholarship is awarded to students attending classes in the technical trades programs at ASUMH. The scholarship was established by Mark Bertel in honor of his grandfather. His dad, Mark Bertel, helped fund the scholarship.
Gage McIntosh is a partner with Bertel at Borderline Clothing and Supply. Borderline gives back to small communities "any chance and in any way they can," said McIntosh."
