Denise Smith-Hams

In 2021, Denise and Stephen felt that it was time to give back to their local community and wanted to provide support to first-generation students and students with financial need. Understanding that the power of an education can shape the circumstances of student lives in a positive way, Denise and Stephen have always been strong supporters of education and are happy that they can contribute to scholarships. In Fall of 2024, Stephen passed away from cancer. Denise continues to carry on their dedication to education.
