The John T. Petters Foundation was established in March 2004 after Miami University junior John Thomas Petters was killed while on spring break in Florence, Italy. John was a dynamic young man who loved to travel the world and had a keen business mind as cofounder and president of the Miami Investment Club. Before John passed he expressed an interest in helping college students get more from their education which is why his life will forever be celebrated through scholarships awarded to passionate students like him to study abroad. The Foundation works to endow the leaders of tomorrow with an opportunity to advance their educational experience at home and abroad for ongoing knowledge. For more information on the John T.
