This fund was established in 2010 by the estate of Anola “Ann” Hendrick in honor of her daughter, Gail Hendrick, whose passion was teaching children with special needs. The endowment will be used to support scholarships to students at the College of Education at the University of Florida.

Gail earned her master’s degree in special education from UF in 1978. She taught middle school students with emotional and behavioral problems for more than 20 years in Augusta, GA.

Gail passed away in 200
