| David Riggins Scholarship
Fund: |
For many
years, David Riggins was a strong supporter of the
Christian School of Kingwood. He directed his energy, his
recommendations, and many financial gifts to CSK. He believed
that a Christian education was the very best investment parents
could make in their children. He was especially touched by those
parents who sacrificed mightily (in spite of limited finances) in order
to send their children to CSK. When David passed away, significant
monetary donations were made to the school in David’s memory by
business colleagues, friends, and family members.
That was the beginning of the David Riggins
Scholarship Fund.
Each summer, people who are determined to send their children
to the Christian School of Kingwood, but who cannot quite manage
expenses associated with private education apply to the Administrator
for financial support. Decisions are made by mid-July and then monies
from the David Riggins Scholarship Fund are used to benefit those students and
parents whom David so wanted to help.
Since David’s death, 7 to 10 students per year
have been able to attend CSK because of his Memorial.
All of us at CSK miss David Riggins, but we will never
forget all of the wonderful things he did for CSK, and through
the David Riggins Scholarship Fund, David lives on through the lives
of the students who are recipients of these financial grants.
