2022 Schwab Grant

Lisa Ranahan Andon ’92 is the 2022 recipient of the Lori Ann Schwab ’95 Alumni Grant. She will use the $2,000 award to help build an outdoor cafeteria for Wone Elementary School in the Federated States of Micronesia. Located about 500 miles north of the equator and 3,100 miles east of Hawaii, Micronesia is made up of four island states. Andon served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Micronesia after graduation and went on to marry a native islander. Wone Elementary enrolls 194 students, many of whose family members rely on subsistence agriculture and fishing in one of the most remote areas of the island.
