JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – Jamestown Dollars for Scholars announced that RM Stoudt, Inc. is endowing a new scholarship that will be awarded to a graduating Jamestown High School or Jamestown-BJA (formerly Jamestown North) senior.

The R.M. Stoudt, Inc. Scholarship is about giving a student an opportunity to attend college or a recognized, quality trade school. Students with a GPA of 2.5 or greater who participated in extra-curricular activities or who have a work history will be given preference for this $1,000 scholarship.

Individuals interested in endowing a scholarship can do so for an investment of $20,000, which can be paid in full
or installments of $5,000 over four years. Kristi Grounds can be contacted at the Central Office at 952-1950 for more information.

Casey Stoudt, R.M. Stoudt, Inc. owner, presented the local chapter with a check on May 8, 2023. He stated, “As an
alumnus of the Class of 1967, I have always been gratified by the lifelong friendships I made at JHS as well as the
education I received. I hope to encourage and help make post-secondary education more achievable for students
by endowing a scholarship which will benefit graduating JHS seniors for years to come.” R. M. Stoudt’s mission is
to establish lifelong relationships, based on honesty and respect that exceed the highest expectations of our
employees and customers.

R. M. Stoudt, Inc. was founded by R. M. Stoudt Sr. in 1941. He was joined by his son Dick Stoudt Jr., who operated
the business until 1986 when Casey Stoudt purchased the dealership. Casey has been and continues to be active in
many local organizations, serving as Chair of the Chamber of Commerce, Treasurer of Jamestown Dollars for
Scholars and member of the Anne Carlsen Board of Directors, just to name a few. R. M. Stoudt, Inc. employees are
deeply committed to and involved with community activities. For 15 years, R. M. Stoudt, Inc. has sponsored and
organized the Running of the Pink annual run, which raises money for Women's Cancer causes. Casey's sons Casey J. and Kelly are the 4th generation involved with dealership operations.

The board accepted the donation at their bi-monthly meeting. Dave Falk, Jamestown Dollars for Scholars board
member shared, “Casey has been a great supporter of Dollars for Scholars since it began as the Jamestown Public
School Foundation. Annually, he organizes the Blue Jay Touchdowns for Dollars for Scholars fundraiser. He
spearheaded the fundraising and endowment of the Class of 1967 Scholarship. Casey is always willing to help with
the Giving Hearts Day campaign. Scholarship endowments can have a meaningful impact in people’s lives by
inspiring students to pursue post-secondary education and assist with those expenses. We are grateful that Casey
and R. M. Stoudt, Inc. have generously agreed to endow a scholarship.”
