About Us
Sam R. Ratcliff was an oil and gas broker (landman) in the Powder River Basin for fifty years. He always said he made his money in the Powder River Basin and that is where he would like his money to stay. The Sam R. Ratcliff Charitable Foundation, 501 (c) 3, was formed in 2002 for the purpose of furthering the education of high school graduating seniors. First Interstate Bank, Trust Department, handled the administration and money. The Foundation, through its evaluators, awarded a scholarship to deserving, graduating high school seniors from Campbell County, WY.
Sam did not believe that anyone should get a free ride; but, he was all in for helping. He believed in any kind of higher education, whether it was attending a trade school or reaching for a doctorate, and everything in between.
The mission of the Sam R Ratcliff Charitable Foundation is to provide scholarships to qualified high school graduates from Campbell, Crook, Johnson, or Weston counties to attend technical or academic institutions.
