Hortense Ward Scholarship Information & Application
The Hortense Ward Scholarship is presented annually by the Houston Heights Woman's Club to a female law school student in her second or third year. The recipient should exemplify the qualities of public service and commitment to social causes, especially those involving women. Candidates are asked to provide a brief statement describing their involvement in these initiatives and how they plan to continue this involvement in their legal careers.
In 2024, the Houston Heights Woman's Club awarded a scholarship in the amount of $2,500 female student pursuing a degree from the University of Houston Law Center, enrolled during the 2023-2024 academic year.
The awardee was elected based on:
- Educational path
- Vocation or occupational goals and
- Service and commitment to social and/or civic activities. The scholarship may be used for school or living expenses.
The scholarship was presented to the awardee in one installment during the Houston Heights Woman's Club Founders Day reception.
