There are always obstacles to be overcome in your journey. Stones in the path, forks in the road, bridges out, falling rocks, steep grade, curves ahead, foggy area, no gas for 50 miles, who knows what else! But you know, that's what makes the journey so interesting. You see, your path to success is just that, YOUR PATH! All along your path you will face the difficulties and responsibilities that come with success and it's your character that will keep you going.
I'm excited for you! Let's chart the course and get on the road! Enjoy the journey!

I have created a memorial scholarship endowment in the name of my father, Oscar M. Olney and my cousin, Randall E. Olney. Both of these men have been champions of Native American Indian Education and Employment Training and Rights. I am setting aside a percentage of my business profits to enable Native American youth an opportunity to pursue higher education. Initially it will provide books and supplies, but as the fund grows, so will the amount of the scholarships. My goal is to one day be able to provide 'Full-Ride' academic scholarships to the up-coming generations of Native Americans. If you would like to contribute, I encourage you to do so. You can send $$$ directly, which is always good, or you can contribute in another way, by simply trying out some of the products andservices at www.KCPhoneKing.com

There is much work that remains to be completed for the benefit of Native American people.
This scholarship is formed with that in mind, and in the hopes that those chosen to be awarded this scholarship will continue to promote the advancement of Native Americans in Business and in Education. Their leadership is greatly needed by a people that tend to be forgotten all too often.

He instilled in his students the belief that no matter what the circumstance of their existence, they have the ability to overcome. They have the ability to be successful. They have the ability to grow into an amazing agent of change. They have the ability to become an inspiration to others.
Learn, Do, Teach, Repeat.
