“Dick was a tireless advocate for the financial planning profession, and this scholarship fund truly reflects the legacy that he left for all of us,” said Marilyn Mohrman-Gillis, executive director of the CFP Board Center for Financial Planning, in a statement. “It is our privilege to join with FPA in establishing this fund to continue Dick’s efforts to cultivate the next generation of competent and ethical financial planner professionals who reflect the diversity of the American population we seek to serve.”
Donations for the scholarship are being accepted here. Applications from new and prospective CFP professionals will begin early in 2019.
