In Memory of Friends and Former Board Member, Clark Bergloff

Clark
Clark often did the cooking at our board meetings.

Clark Bergloff was an inspired educator with the Mora Minnesota School District. As one of ERC’s founding board members, his commitment will always guide our mission and values.

At Clark’s funeral in 2004, which was held at the 50-yard line of the Mora High School football stadium, his relationship to ERC was described as important in his life. ERC board members participated in the service, reading poetry relating to the environment that had been inspirational to Clark.

In Clark’s memory we have established the Bergloff Cyber Shungu Project which is donating computers to private schools in Zimbabwe. The students and faculty are extremely grateful and, although it wasn’t requested, they have placed our ERC logo on all their computers. They are great kids with a great future and Clark would have been proud.
