ATTENTION HOUSTON SENIORS! 2024
History of the Scholarship Fund!
The Houston Community Association, Inc. awarded three scholarships this year to Houston High School graduates, all in memory of someone who was fundamental in the history of the Houston Community Association. In addition to the $500 scholarships, there is now a $1,000 scholarship in memory of Roy O. and Gertrude A. Roeth, as they were two of the original founders and donated the land where the building stands today. The student who goes above and beyond and volunteers the most hours to our organization will be awarded this scholarship.
