Martin and Emma Block Scholarship Endowment

Martin and Emma (Spindler) Block were long-time Saginaw County business owners. One of the first retail businesses in Saginaw Township – Block’s Pharmacy – was started by the Blocks. As supporters of the Lutheran church and Michigan Lutheran Seminary, Mr. and Mrs. Block believed in the power of education. Three of their nieces acquired advanced degrees and became educators, which made a deep impression on the Blocks.
