In memory of Jack Donaldson, the White House Correspondents’ Association has established a onetime scholarship fund to subsidize the college education of a student in the Washington, D.C. area with a demonstrated interest in pursuing a career in journalism. Donaldson, a 12 year-old actor, baseball player and lover of Lego, passed away in September 2011 as the result of a storm-related accident. He is the grandson of Julia Whiston, the association’s executive director. The recipient, chosen from a talented pool of applicants with Prime Movers Media, is Angel Brock from McKinley Technology High School, Washington, D.C.
