Its two programs serve students directly. In 2025, the foundation awarded college scholarships to 26 Tomball ISD graduates and animal scholarships to 27 students. The filing states that students receiving animal scholarships may raise animals such as steers, pigs, lambs, goats, rabbits, chickens, or turkeys for the annual Tomball FFA show.
