Social Worker Leaves Millions In Endowment


{Elizabethtown, Kentucky}…Charley Nell Llewellyn, a former social worker for the Hardin County Schools, has left a $2.42 million endowment for college scholarships there. Llewellyn's gift is expected to generate about $100,000 a year and is the largest philanthropic gift in the county's history. Another $1 million will eventually be added to the endowment, adding an additional $40,000-$50,000 for scholarships each year. Schools Superintendent Nanette Johnston says the scholarships are need-based and can be used at any college or university.
