Danielle Lovegren is the winner of the 2013 Toni Berke Foster Memorial Scholarship. The award, which contributes toward the recipient's undergraduate education, is in the amount of $6,000.

Toni Burke Foster, 1946-2006, was a lifelong teacher. Born in Lake Oswego, she went to Portland State and subsequently taught at Lake Oswego Junior High. She found her home in Camp Sherman, where she became the principle teacher, beloved by a generation of students at Black Butte

School.

The scholarship fund in her honor gives grants to students that have attended Black Butte School in Camp Sherman, and that are enrolling as a freshman in a public or non-profit college or university in the United States.
