Paul H Jepsen's Legacy

History

The Paul H Jepsen Scholarship was created in 2002 by his son Ed. He named the scholarship in honor of his father, who instilled in his family a deep sense of the importance of education. Paul (1929) and Ed (1961), along with family members Jackie McLellan (1958) and Bruce and Holly Hoberman (1965) were all graduates of Central High and have always appreciated the positive effect it had on their lives.

Mission

The mission of the Paul H Jepsen Scholarship is to assist deserving Omaha Central High School graduates in financing a college experience and education they may not otherwise attain without financial assistance. The hope and expectation is that the individuals will be of the character and inclination to use their education to not only realize their potential but also to be significant contributors in their professional and social communities.
