The Firefighter Brian Hunton Memorial Scholarship, offered by the Amarillo Area Foundation, supports continued education for graduating high school seniors who are children of firefighters. Eligibility is tied to a parent’s membership in a fire department in the City of Amarillo, Potter County, or Randall County.
The scholarship gives recipients the freedom to attend an institution and major in a field of their choice, rather than prescribing a particular institution or academic discipline. It is included among the foundation’s county-specific scholarship opportunities, which applicants can access through a shared general application.
