The Masonic Lodge was instrumental in the formation of the Public School System in Texas. As such, the Scholarship of all Texas students is one of the primary charities of many Lodges in the State. The Killeen Masonic Lodge has for many years offered students the opportunity for monetary scholarships to be used towards furthering their education.

Scholarship funds come from fund-raisers conducted by the members of the lodge and donations from Masons and Non-Masons. Relationship to a current or deceased Mason is NOT required for consideration. Students who desire to be considered for these scholarships must complete and return this application to Killeen Masonic Lodge Either electronically or physically prior to March 15th.
