OFG Financial Services, Security Benefit and the KNEA sponsor a grant program for Kansas Educators. It is a way to recognize and award educators for all they do. It is also a way for these firms to say thank you, they appreciate you! Over 1,500 people apply each year for the grants, and only 100 get awarded a $100 grant. Today, we are pleased to announce that Mrs. Bathory has been selected as one of the award recipients. Please join us in congratulating her!
