The Sanibel Chapter FV of P.E.O. Intentional announced that Addison \u201cAddi\u201d Sprecher has been selected to receive the Margaret B. Lee Scholarship.<\/p>\n
She grew up on Sanibel and attended The Sanibel School. Sprecher graduated from Fort Myers High School in the spring where she excelled in the International Baccalaureate program. She will attend the University of Florida in the fall, majoring in pre-med.<\/p>\n
The scholarship was established by former Sanibel resident Jack Lee and his daughters in memory of his wife and their mother, Margaret \u201cMargie\u201d Lee, who was a member of P.E.O.<\/p>\n
The scholarship is administered by the P.E.O. Foundation of P.E.O. International, a women\u2019s educational philanthropic organization dedicated to providing educational opportunities for women.<\/p>\n
Sanibel Chapter FV selects the recipient of the grant each year based on the Lee family\u2019s request that the young woman have ties to the island.<\/p>\n
