Scholarship fund renamed to honor Phil Noble
August 19, 2009 · 1:48 PM
Board members of Alliance of Eastside Agencies (AEA) have unanimously voted to rename the AEA Scholarship Fund “The Phil Noble Scholarship Fund for Non-Profit Leadership.” The scholarship will honor the late Bellevue City Council member.
The scholarship is dedicated to the development of leadership excellence in the non-profit human services sector in the Eastside community by financially supporting education and training.
Noble died on July 19. He was a three-term Bellevue City Council member and had also served on the Bellevue school board and the Bellevue Transportation Commission. In addition, he volunteered his time with Eastside Human Services Forum and was on the governing board of the King County Committee to End Homelessness.
“We knew Phil to be a great community leader and strong advocate and champion for human services," said David Downing, AEA Chair and Associate Director of Youth Eastside Services. "We all recognize the significant impact of his loss to both his family and the greater community."
The Alliance of Eastside Agencies is a 40-plus member alliance of human service non-profits with the mission of strengthening human services infrastructure in East King County to build healthy communities through a strong human services network.
