Special Forces Association

Welcome to The Alamo Chapter of the Special Forces Association

When I started college, I honestly wasn’t sure how I was going to make it. I worked part-time, but the bills and tuition kept piling up. Being awarded the Special Forces Association scholarship changed everything. Because of that financial support, I was able to focus more on my studies and future. I graduated with honors and then continued on to earn my master’s degree just a few years later. This scholarship didn’t just help me pay for school—it gave me the confidence to dream bigger. I was able to go into a career I love, and I’ll never forget that it all started with someone believing in me.

I have been honored to have previously received the Special Forces Scholarship in past years. Receiving this scholarship has assisted me in affording the high costs of post-secondary school, such as Graduate school. With the assistance of the Special Forces Association and their gracious opportunities in the field of education, I am near the end of my college experience and will be obtaining my Master of Science in Finance and Economics. I highly urge other potential candidates to seek out this specific scholarship by these honorable veterans.

2nd Annual SFA Chapter XV Golf Tournament Fundraiser

A hearty thanks and tip of the beret to all of the sponsors, organizers, players, support personnel and spouses who made our 2nd Annual SFA Chapter XV Golf Tournament Fundraiser so successful. From the pre-event mixer held at Longtab Brewing the evening prior, to the presentation of the colors by Veterans Memorial High School JROTC program opening the tournament, to the support provided by the Olympia Hills Golf & Event Center staff, to the volunteer work by so many Chapter XV members and spouses throughout the day. Through your selfless efforts, we are able to give to so many worthy causes. A special thanks to Tournament Organizer Harold McBride with assistance from Santiago Sanchez, Joe Finger, and John Armezzani. Lastly, I would like to recognize our auctioneer Paul Coleman and our own "Vanna White" of the auction Charlotte Martin along with Dave Jenkins, Tom Tannahill, Fred Solis and Arnulfo Vasquez who donated items for the auction.

The Chapter sends a tip of the beret and a big thank you to our chapter member Houng Le “Robbie” and his wife Thu for their donation of a professional grade sound system.
