The Mark H Butler Performing Arts Scholarship fund is a not-for-profit scholarship fund based in Swanton, Ohio. Its mission is to provide financial assistance and opportunities for growth to talented individuals who are passionate about pursuing a career in the performing arts. By offering scholarships for performing arts education, the fund aims to support and encourage individuals in this field. One of the main goals of the scholarship fund is to provide scholarship funds specifically for Black graduates of Swanton High School who are pursuing higher education in the performing arts. This initiative is named after Mark H. Butler, a graduate of SHS, who serves as an inspiration for this cause. By supporting the educational aspirations of talented individuals in the performing arts, the fund hopes to make a positive impact on their lives and help them achieve their dreams. The fundraising event on February 17, 2024, will be held at Swanton High School and will feature performances by the Swanton High School Jazz Band and the University of Toledo Jazz Ensemble with Ellie Martin. This promises to be an evening filled with great music and entertainment. Not only will you get to enjoy the soulful sounds of jazz, but you will also have the opportunity to contribute to a worthy cause. Attending this event is not only a chance to have a great time, but it is also an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of talented individuals pursuing their dreams in the performing arts. Your support can help provide them with the financial assistance they need to further their education and develop their skills. If you're unable to attend the event, there are still ways you can contribute to the Mark H Butler Performing Arts Scholarship fund. You can make a donation directly to the fund or consider becoming a sponsor. Every contribution, no matter how big or small, can make a significant impact on the lives of these talented individuals.
