Paying tribute to others as students welcome new beginnings

Brian enjoying Spring-1979
There is nothing like Spring. Winter dissolves into green grass, budding flowers, the growth of vegetables and warm breezes.

Springtime for Brian's Foundation represents the end of the school year allowing new beginnings for many--students gear up for the end of the school year, teachers plan end of the year exams, and parents prepare for their 'baby' to enter the real world.

Like spring every year, Brian's Foundation has new growth-45 new scholarship recipients become a part of our every-growing garden. Budding young men and women enter the next phase in their life and go through all that is yet to come like a warm breeze.

Scholarship of Honor Presentation Dates

We are honored to pay tribute to 21 heroes annually through one of our programs, the Scholarship of Honor.
