Mexico High School Senior Keith Ransom Selected to Receive Allen P. And Josephine B. Green Foundation Scholarship

Mexico High School senior Keith Ransom is the recipient of the 2022 Allen P. and Josephine B. Green Foundation Scholarship.

He is the son of Roland and Susan Ransom, and has been selected to receive the $7,500 scholarship, which is renewable for a total of four years.

Keith will pursue a degree in Mechanical Engineering at Cleveland State University.

Mr. and Mrs. Allen P. Green established the Allen P. and Josephine B. Green Foundation in 1941. Mr. Green moved to Mexico, Missouri, in 1910 and purchased the firebrick company that retained his name until it was sold in 1997. Recognizing the contribution of the A.P. Green Fire Brick company to the community, and the contributions of the people of the community to the success of the company, the Green Foundation established the scholarship.

Larry Webber, Chair of the Green Foundation Scholarship Committee said, “Mr. Ransom is an exceptional student and very deserving of this honor. We are extremely proud to name him as the 2022 recipient of the Green Foundation Scholarship. We hope this scholarship will be of important assistance as he pursues his college degree, and we believe he will be an ambassador that will make the Mexico Community proud.”
