Holocaust Museum Houston is pleased to offer a scholarship for high school students that honors the memory of those who perished during the Holocaust. The scholarship is presented as a part of the Museum’s citywide commemoration of Yom HaShoah (Day of Remembrance) for the victims of the Holocaust.
The scholarship is open to high school students in grades 9-12 whose school is located within the Region 4 Education Service Center area. The student selected to receive the scholarship must be available to attend the Yom HaShoah commemoration service on Sunday, April 27, 2025.
The scholarship is a one-time award of $500 and is being presented with the generous support of the David Barg Endowment Fund and the Morgan Family Endowment Fund.
Students who applied for the scholarship must submit a 500 to 1,000-word essay answering the question, “Why is it important to remember the Holocaust today?”
