If you grew up in or around Medina over the course of the past 60 years, chances are your life has been impacted by Jerry Gunner. Maybe he coached you in baseball or football. Maybe he gave you a job. Or maybe you've just been on the receiving end of a direct act of kindness. No matter how it happened, here's a chance for you to pay it forward.

As a sponsor of the Jerry Gunner Community Betterment Scholarship Fund, you're supporting the dreams and futures of tomorrow's leaders of our community. In 2025, we awarded about $20,000 to Medina County seniors who have shown a commitment to strengthening their community. These awards can be used for any postsecondary education that student wishes to pursue.
