We are proud to announce a special fundraiser dinner supporting the John and Kelly Prewitt Memorial Scholarship, created to honor their lasting impact on the TXTA community and their commitment to advancing trade and technical education. Thanks to generous contributions—including two anonymous $10,000 gifts and a matching donation from the Breeden family—the scholarship has reached $30,000. Our goal is to now grow the fund to $50,000. To help us get there, we’re kicking off fundraising with a special event with dinner and drinks at Houston Freightliner. All proceeds will directly benefit the scholarship. Join us for an evening celebrating the legacy of two individuals who meant so much to our industry and community.
