Since 2008, LHI and the Weber family provided scholarships for area Veterans with the proceeds of the ever-popular Freedom Fest event held each summer in La Crosse. When Freedom Fest concluded this past year, the Weber family established this scholarship fund so that the mission and spirit of Freedom Fest will live on. Named in honor of Donald P. Weber, an Amry Veteran and POW of World War II, a total of three scholarships will be awarded to Veterans or National Guard members planning to enroll at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, Western Technical College and Viterbo University.
