Annually, we have a Scholarship Ceremony Reception in August at the El Pomar Penrose House. We partner with American GI Forum and El Cinco de Mayo, Inc. to host this ceremony. We invite our recipients, their families, and our valued donors to this joyous event. It is a celebration of the accomplishments and investments in the future of our scholarship recipients.
