Melania Trump and LSU announce $5 million scholarship endowment for former foster care students

Melania Trump traveled to Baton Rouge on Saturday to announce a partnership between LSU and her "Fostering the Future" program providing scholarships to LSU students who came through foster care. The White House said $5 million was secured to create an endowment fund, without detailing the source of the money. She also planned to attend the LSU-Alabama football game.
