Ann Vickers Business Scholarship Awarded to NFC Student Ansley English
MADISON, FL (Dec. 6, 2021) - Since 2019, the North Florida College Foundation has been proud to award the Ann
Vickers Business Scholarship established by NFC Alumna, Ann M. Vickers. This scholarship
assists first-generation students from North Florida and South Georgia who are
pursuing a degree in business or accounting.
Born and raised in Madison, Florida, Ann was the first in her family to graduate college with a bachelor's degree. She attended (then) North Florida Junior College to earn her Associate in Arts degree before continuing to the University of West Florida to earn her Bachelor of Arts in Accounting. Ann is the Chief Executive Officer at Charles River CFO (CRCFO) and brings 40 years of financial experience in a broad range of industry segments served by CRCFO, including life sciences and high technology. She is an entrepreneur at heart and her firm has enjoyed recognition as one of the Inc. 500’s Fastest Growing Private Companies in America.
Ann recently had the opportunity to meet the 2021-2022 recipient of the Ann Vickers Business Scholarship at NFC, Ansley English. Ansley is a first-generation college student currently enrolled at NFC earning her Associate in Science Degree in Business Administration. She graduated from Aucilla Christian Academy in 2020 and is a resident of Shady Grove. With the help of the scholarship, Ansley will soon complete her program at NFC before transferring to a university in the upcoming fall term.
Through Ann’s scholarship, students like Ansley are receiving the required financial help they need to make their higher education dreams a reality.
“We are always honored to receive alumni donations like Ann’s,” said Judy Lundell, NFC Director of Resource Development. “The scholarship that she has established at NFC is a testament to the impact that the College had on her life. Now through her generosity, a future generation of students who might not otherwise have attended college are being empowered to pursue their goals in business and accounting.”
