The Bend Foundation is honoring longtime Bend civic leader, development visionary and Old Mill originator William Smith, who passed away in November of last year, with a $40,000 donation to a previously established scholarship endowment started by Smith and his family at the Central Oregon Community College (COCC) Foundation. The gift recognizes Smith's 40 years of dedicated trustee service to The Bend Foundation and the greater community, while furthering a cause he cherished. Smith and his widow, Trish, have been ardent supporters of higher education on the high desert for decades, championing capital campaigns at COCC, establishing the COCC Foundation Smith Family Endowment, and being dedicated benefactors to COCC scholarships. Trish is a past trustee, executive director and now emeritus member of the COCC Foundation's board. The gift from The Bend Foundation $10,000 per year over four years will help grow an endowed fund to benefit many COCC scholarship recipients to
