“Bank of the Hills’ support of
Hill Country College Fund has made it
possible for over 250 Hill Country students to
attend Schreiner this year. For many of these
students, a college education would be
financially out of reach if not for the
assistance they receive from HCCF,” said
Jennifer Farhoudi, associate director of
development for annual giving at Schreiner
University. “Their generosity embodies what HCCF
is all about— neighbors helping neighbors.”
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.
