Scope and Contents
A collection of multiple objects belonging to Kendall and Violet Bennett of Aurora. They were a couple who lived in Aurora and ran a travel agency, which eventually led them to making travel arrangements for many SAC students boarding at the school. Ken and Vi never had children of their own, and as such had a deep affection for the students of St. Andrew's College. Quietly they began to pay the tuitions for several boys living in Aurora who could not have attended the school otherwise, and were frequently invited to take part school events. Upon their passing, Ken and Vi left a large bequest to St. Andrew's to continue funding new students, which has now become The Kendall and Violet Bennett Scholarship for residents of Aurora.
