Simplot Scholarship Winner

Congratulations to Breearne Broomhall on winning the 2009 Simplot Scholarship!

”I want to be able to learn and live in a different culture from the one I’ve grown up with and for another family to accept me as one of their own. I also hope to meet many other people and leave an impact as well as to learn from them.”
