Margaret E. Brust Nursing Scholarship Fund

Founded by Margaret for Frederick County students majoring in nursing.

Frederick native Margaret Brust was well known through the lives she touched as a nurse. After graduating from St. Agnes Hospital in Baltimore, she worked for many years as a private duty nurse at Frederick Memorial Hospital and Vindabona Nursing Home, yet found time during her career to help organize the first Auxiliary at the Meridian Nursing Center (now College View) and served as its president. Throughout her life, Margaret Brust bettered the lives of her patients, family, and friends with a kind word, skilled hands, and a compassionate heart. Students are awarded scholarships from this fund who are graduates of Frederick County high schools pursuing a post-secondary education in the field of nursing, as well as students currently enrolled in a nursing program.

Richard R. Burgee Memorial Scholarship Fund for Trinity United Methodist Church

Founded by the Church in Mr. Burgee’s memory for Church members pursuing post-secondary or graduate education.

In 1957, Richard R. Burgee began his legal career in Frederick and practiced law until his death in October 2003. Among his many community service pursuits, Mr. Burgee was a lifelong and involved member of Trinity United Methodist Church. He played an instrumental role in moving the faith congregation to its current location on West Patrick Street in Frederick. He also served as a choir director and Sunday school teacher. Trinity United Methodist Church turned to the Community Foundation to establish The Richard R. Burgee Memorial Scholarship Fund for Trinity United Methodist Church in Mr. Burgee’s memory to provide scholarships to Church members who are pursuing a post-secondary or graduate education. Scholarships are based on a mix of academic performance and financial need. The fund bearing Mr. Burgee’s name continues to aid members of the faith community to which he was committed and is a lasting testament to his life and his desire to help others in their educational endeavors.
