We would like to thank Director’s Mortgage for being a sponsor of Willamette United! A portion of the Director’s Mortgage annual donation was used for this year’s Rodger Hepburn College Scholarship. Director’s Mortgage has made a generous donation every year for the last six years. These funds help cover our annual college scholarship as well as countless registration scholarships!
