Albert "Bert" Howie Memorial Scholarship
Albert Howie was a beloved son, brother, father, and friend who was recently killed, cutting his career and life short.
Albert was a passionate paramedic who dedicated his life to serving his community, saving lives, and helping others. Paramedics and other emergency service workers are crucial in establishing a sense of safety in their towns and often put themselves in harm's way in order to provide the best care possible.
This scholarship seeks to honor the memory of Albert Howie by supporting students who are pursuing higher education.
Any high school senior, high school graduate, or undergraduate student who is attending Del Mar College in Texas or will be attending in the fall may apply for this scholarship opportunity. However, applicants who are pursuing paramedic certification are preferred.
