Lake Whitney Arts Association recently met with graduates who received Let Your Light Shine Fund scholarships for 2022.
Kendrick Booth, Brayden Heath and Sean Keegan were presented $500 each in hopes that the funds will help offset first-year costs at their respective colleges, according to LWA Board President Cindy Parks.
The Let Your Light Shine Fund was established in 2016 with a grant from Dr. Dale Thompson and Leadership Worth Following, LLC, an Irving-based consulting firm.
The initial grant was intended to help fund LWA’s children’s programs. With the renewing funds over the past years, the theatre has been able to award graduating seniors who have participated in LWA’s past children’s plays and activities scholarships.
Dr. Thompson and Leadership Worth Following, LLC, established the grants to honor the memory and spirit of Thompson’s nephew, David Samson.
