Dental Hygiene Scholarship

Mary Cinatl, Committee Chair

I am thrilled to introduce Ms. Savannah Keller, our Dental Hygiene Scholarship recipient for 2024-2025. Savannah graduated from Boswell High School in Fort Worth and is excited to further her education and make a meaningful impact in her community. She looks forward to advocating for others’ access to dental care and hopefully inspire future generations of women to enter healthcare occupations. Savannah will receive a total of $1,000 from our branch to be used towards tuition and books in the first year of her two-year program at Tarrant County College, Northeast Campus.

Savannah begins classes in mid-August, and we wish her great success in her chosen field of study. The poet Luke Easter once said: “A strong woman knows she has strength enough for the journey, but a woman of strength knows it is in the journey where she will become strong.”

We hope you enjoy each moment of your new journey, Savannah.
