Proventus Announces Memorial Scholarship

Proventus, LLC, has announced their 2025 scholarships will be in memory of the late Cecile Rachel Stern.

Cecile Stern, originally from Astoria, Queens, NY, was married to her husband Leonard for 64 years. She is remembered by her family as an amazing mother, mother-in-law, and grandmother.

Cecile lived a fulfilling and meaningful life. She raised a family, obtained a graduate degree, ran a successful business, and held many responsible positions in the health care field. She was known as a true friend to many and, wherever she went, she became an understanding and trusted confidante. Cecile was strong in the face of life’s many challenges and loved her family and friends.

The Proventus Scholarship in Memory of Cecile Stern funded by Proventus, LLC, is made possible through the 2024 BRTC Foundation Golf Tournament headlined by Proventus. The $1,000 scholarship package enables donors to offer a $1,000 scholarship to a student the following fall, provided the student meets academic requirements.

Proventus is a company based in Jonesboro, Arkansas, that is powered by a team of retired Navy SEALs. The company provides safety, security, and leadership training to organizations to ensure that each place has a safe and secure environment.
