Shirley and Ray Rackley
recently presented Schreiner University’s Hill
Country College Fund with a check for $5,000 to
help fund need-based tuition assistance grants
for area Schreiner students.
“We are grateful for Shirley and Ray’s great
generosity to Schreiner students,” said Dr. Tim
Summerlin, president of Schreiner University.
“Beyond that, we are excited whenever folks move
into our Hill Country community and say, ‘Look,
something good is going on over there at
Schreiner; let’s be a part of it.’”
Since the Hill Country College Fund began in
1977, it has provided more than $8 million in
need-based tuition assistance to students from
Kimble, Kerr, Gillespie, Kendall, Bandera, Real,
and Edwards counties and helps more than 250
Hill Country Students annually. Hill Country
College Fund grants provide an average of over
$2,900 a year per recipient and one hundred
percent of funds raised goes to student
scholarships.
