Kyle R. Noble Memorial Scholarship
To further the educational goals of individuals relying on HPN or HEN for their primary nutritional needs.
In 2007, the Noble family established the
Kyle R. Noble Scholarship. Each academic year, a $1,000 scholarship will be
awarded to an applicant who embodies the qualities for which Kyle will be
remembered. Applicants are asked to write a one to three page essay describing
how he or she has overcome obstacles/challenges posed by HEN and/or HPN and
inspired others to live life to the fullest. An educational reference (letter
from an advisor or teacher supporting educational pursuits) and a medical
reference (from someone on the applicant’s health care team — physician, nurse,
dietitian — verifying the medical situation) are required. The scholarship will
be distributed at the end of the school year after a copy of the recipient’s
transcript of his/her grades has been submitted to the Oley Foundation. The
award recipient will be announced at the Oley Annual Conference. Applications
for the June 2008 scholarship must be received by

Thanks Abbott Nutrition!
Richard and Donna Noble established the scholarship fund with donations from
many generous individuals and Kyle's $10,000 life insurance policy. What no one
envisioned was that someone at Abbott Nutrition (a.k.a. Julie Fisk) went quietly
to work on an initiative to match the original funding. This generous gift of
$10,000 arrived recently, warming the hearts of the many who hold Kyle’s memory
close. Thank you Abbott.
