Dex Knows Best Dog Food Donates a Portion of Each Bag Sold to the Sarah Burke Foundation
Sarah Burke Foundation is Giving Away $15,000 in Scholarships to Athletes with Dreams. Winners will be announced on Dec. 15, 2018.
SQUAMISH, British Columbia, December 11, 2018 (Newswire.com) - Rory Bushfield, professional skier, filmmaker, reality TV star and founder of dog food company Dex Knows Best, has established a scholarship fund for promising athletes in honor of his late wife Sarah Burke, a four-time Winter X Games gold medalist and world champion freestyle skier. A portion of every bag sold of Dex Knows Best dog food is donated to the Sarah Burke Foundation. This month, the foundation will be donating $15,000 and announcing two scholarship winners on Dec. 15, 2018 (each athlete receives $7,500).
Sarah Jean Burke (Sept. 3, 1982 – Jan. 19, 2012) was so much more than just a successful athlete. She was a leader in the sports community, as well as a respected media personality and action sports icon. She was also an activist and a philanthropist, who devoted much of her life to helping others.
We look to sponsor athletes under 18 that have dreams, drive and a clear vision. We are excited to announce this year's scholarship winners on Dec. 15, 2018.
