Wells Fargo Bank president
Roy Thompson recently presented Schreiner
University’s
Hill Country College Fund with a check for
$3,000 to help fund need-based tuition
assistance grants for area Schreiner students.
“Wells Fargo is a wonderful company that is
invested in the education of our local
students,” said Jennifer Farhoudi, associate
director of development for annual giving at
Schreiner University. “Their longtime support of
HCCF is a testament to their belief in our Hill
Country students and their potential. We feel
very fortunate to have them as a partner in
education.”
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 directly to student
scholarships.

Hill Country College Fund is making a difference
