The Richard Wallrath Educational Foundation, through a partnership with the Texas Home School Coalition, is providing $10,000 college scholarships to students in the homeschool community!

At THSC, we know that no single educational path is right for everyone. Some students will join the workforce straight out of high school, while some will attend a technical school or start their own business. However, for those that feel called to pursue higher education, THSC and the Richard Wallrath Educational Foundation (RWEF) want to help.

About the Richard Wallrath Educational Foundation:

Since 2006, the Richard Wallrath Educational Foundation has awarded 1,400 scholarships, totaling $14 million dollars to deserving students through partnerships with other organizations.

“Dick Wallrath doesn’t believe in giving something for nothing. What he does believe in is giving opportunities. That’s why the foundation gives college scholarships to deserving young people. It’s money they can put with a lot of hard work to make something out of themselves. It’s teaching a man to fish, so to speak.

‘When you give a child an education,’ Dick says, ‘you give them something no one can steal. You can make their dreams come true. They can go and do something with their life.’”

At THSC, we could not agree more. That’s why we are so passionate about providing homeschooling resources, fighting for parental rights, and making homeschooling possible for as many families as possible.

The Richard Wallrath Educational Foundation (RWEF) is partnering with THSC to extend those opportunities to the homeschooling community. What does a Richard Wallrath Education Foundation Scholarship provided through the Texas Homeschool Coalition look like?
