Financial assistance for pacesetters in need. Beginning in 2016, a four-year scholarship program was initiated to provide financial assistance to graduating high school seniors who demonstrated the qualifications and desire for higher education, showed a dedication to helping others, and are in need of such assistance.
This year we are pleased to announce our 2024 scholarship recipient, Camden Redden. Camden is a graduate of Deer Park High School South where he earned his Associates of Science in Computer Science degree and diploma at the age of 16. As an Eagle Scout and exceptional leader in his community, Camden will attend Texas A&M University this fall to further pursue his education. We are honored to have been able to award such a deserving individual this year’s scholarship, and we can’t wait to see what the future for holds for you Camden!
