East Harris County Impact Scholarship
The East Harris County Impact Scholarship was established for School Board Trustee Darius Provost-Evans to recognize students who demonstrate service, leadership, and compassion within their schools and communities. As someone who grew up in East Harris County, Darius believes giving back is how we keep our community strong.
This scholarship aims to honor students who take initiative, lift others, and leave a positive mark on the East Harris County community. Strong communities are built by people who show up for one another, and this scholarship celebrates students already doing that work.
Any high school senior in Texas may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
