THE WOMAN BEHIND THE SCHOLARSHIP

A Legacy of Education,

Service & Humanity.

Mrs. Betty Brown dedicated 35 years to education, including 30 years serving students and families within Tucson Unified School District. Following her passing in September 2000, the Tucson Alumnae Chapter renamed its scholarship fund in her honor.

Her commitment to academic excellence, community service and humanity continues through every scholar supported in her name.

“Her legacy lives on through every young woman
empowered to pursue her dreams.”
