Scholarships Awards 2025
A significant highlight of the year is the awarding of scholarships to deserving college students. One of the express purposes of HFA is to award scholarships in recognition of the importance of education. In 2025, HFA created a new $5,000 scholarship in honor of Robert W. Hasbrouck, Jr., recognizing a student of Huguenot heritage who is majoring in historic preservation and/or museum management. In addition, six students of Huguenot Street lineage received $5,000 Gertrude E. Hasbrouck Memorial Scholarships recognizing their outstanding academic accomplishments. An eighth scholar received the Charles J. Hasbrouck Memorial Scholarship ($1,000), awarded to a student studying historic preservation, architecture, conservation of artifacts and manuscripts, and demonstrating how their scholarship can be applied to educating the public about local history. The Charles scholarship is jointly awarded by HHS and HFA.
As you read the bios of these scholarship recipients, you will be impressed with their accomplishments and can take heart that they will continue to be successful in their future endeavors and represent the best of our Huguenot heritage.
