For Immediate Release
$1000 Stamats Scholarship Awarded to Hanna
Reese
Cedar Rapids, IA, February 24, 2015: She’s not following in her
dad’s footsteps creatively, but she’s ready to forge her own path.
Hanna Reese, daughter of Stamats’ Creative Director Chris Reese,
has been chosen to receive a Stamats Communications Scholarship
from the Iowa College Foundation.
“I would like to say thank you for the scholarship and making the opportunity to further my education
a little easier. I really appreciate it,” says Reese, a current Coe College student.
Hanna has plans to graduate in 2017 with a degree in Psychology and Neuroscience. Eventually she
would like to attend the University of Iowa for post-graduate studies. Her father has been with Stamats
for 19 years, always in the design and creative areas of the higher education division. Not
neuroscience, but certainly valuable to Stamats.
Stamats is a strong supporter of higher education and believes in supporting the educational endeavors
of its employees’ family members. In announcing the award, Stamats President Guy Wendler said,
“Our company and society in general depend on higher education institutions to equip future
employees to serve in the workforce. We also count more than 150 colleges and universities as
clients. We are proud to show our support of both groups with scholarships such as the one Hanna
will receive.” Stamats offers three $1000 scholarships each year to children of any current employee
who plan to attend one of Iowa College Foundations’ independent colleges and universities or
Kirkwood Community College. Applications for the fall of 2015 will be available soon.
