Created in 1990, the Bonner Foundation offered scholarships to service-minded individuals and encouraged colleges to support civically engaged students (Hackett). Ruth Pittard, the first director of the Davidson Bonners explained, “Essentially, the Bonner scholars began the conversation about service learning.” The importance of community involvement permeated the student body through a group of individuals who dedicated their college experience to service and scholarship.
