About:
The Scholastic Shooting Trust (www.scholasticshootingtrust.org) was formed to provide funding for shooting sports education in traditional public and private high schools, colleges and universities, so that participating students can improve their confidence, discipline and leadership skills. Alumni, families of team members and community members fund the grants through donations to the Scholastic Shooting Trust so that youths have a better opportunity to compete in the shooting sports. Larry and Brenda Potterfield created the MidwayUSA Foundation, Inc. in 2007 to support education in shooting sports, hunting, firearms safety and outdoor skills.
