Help Us Carry the Torch

Keaton Miller lived with courage, kindness, and unshakable faith. Though leukemia tried to silence him, it could never steal his light. He fought with the heart of a true warrior—and through his story, we are reminded that even the darkest valleys can give rise to the greatest legacies.

The Keaton Miller Scholarship Fund was created to continue the work Keaton began in his heart: to bring others closer to Christ through education, ministry, and service. We award annual scholarships to students who feel called to ministry, theology, or faith-based teaching—young people who, like Keaton, want to make a difference rooted in faith.

Our scholarship fund is proudly managed by the Truman Heartland Community Foundation, a trusted partner that ensures donor funds are secure, scholarship applications are carefully collected, and student privacy is always protected. Their support allows us to carry Keaton’s legacy forward—impacting lives and opportunities for generations to come.
