centralight Winter 2007 For Margaret and Carl Furney, the American dream meant access to education.

Even though they’re gone, their generosity helps the dream come true for CMU students.

The Furneys, both longtime teachers, established an endowed scholarship through their estate plans to benefit teacher education students who are single parents needing financial assistance. Receiving the Carl V. and Margaret Hahn Furney Scholarship means the world to future teachers who need an extra boost toward reaching their dreams.

Include CMU in your will or estate plan so that you, too, will be able to help CMU students in a very special way.
