(KNZA)--March 1 of this year marks the 25th year since Brown County Sheriff's Deputy Todd Michael Widman gave his life protecting the residents of Brown County. He was just 21 years of age.
To honor Widman's legacy, the Brown County Sheriff's Office is offering custom challenge coins in remembrance of his sacrifice, with 100 percent of the proceeds going toward a scholarship in his name. The scholarship will be awarded to a 2025 Brown County high school senior, paid to the college of their choice.
If you'd like to make a $25 donation to the scholarship fund to obtain a challenge coin, you're asked to contact Cynthia Linck at the Brown County Sheriff's Office at (785) 742-7125
