The Milton Fisher Scholarship for Innovation and Creativity is awarded to students who have solved problems in their schools, communities or families with originality and compassion. Past winners have created art galleries for students to express themselves, conducted research to inspire further focus on treatments on spinal cord injuries, established health programs for an overweight community and taught a children’s pottery class at a local museum.
