The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo has committed to investing $28 million in education programs for the year 2025. This significant pledge underscores the organization’s dedication to supporting students and educational institutions across the region. The application period for rodeo scholarships is set to begin on December 16, allowing prospective students to apply for financial assistance to further their education.
The annual rodeo event is scheduled to take place from March 4 to March 23 at NRG Park, where attendees can enjoy a variety of attractions, including livestock exhibitions, concerts, and rodeo competitions. This year’s funding will not only benefit scholarships but also support various educational initiatives, including grants for schools and programs aimed at enhancing agricultural education.
With the rodeo’s longstanding tradition of giving back to the community, this investment is expected to make a lasting impact on the lives of many students and contribute to the overall development of educational opportunities in the area.
