Tee Hanner Sibling Scholarship

IN HONOR

The Tee Hanner Sibling Scholarship is in honor of Tarence “Tee” Hanner Jr. Tee is the sibling of Tari Hanner who attends Bread of Life Christian Academy, Corp. (BOLCA). BOLCA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit private Christian school in Palm Bay, Florida that creates opportunities for children with disabilities and their families to engage, connect, and thrive. Tee is a smart young man with passion, and kindness not often found in the heart of a 16-year-old. He tenderly cares for his brother in many ways and volunteers for Tari's favorite place, BOLCA. Tee plans to go off for college in May 2022. Tee’s legacy and heart for his brother will continue through the Tee Hanner Sibling Scholarship for years to come.

 

The Tee Hanner Sibling Scholarship is a one-year, non-renewable award, contingent upon acceptance or enrollment in a two- or four-year nonprofit higher education institution for a sibling of an individual with disabilities in the state of Florida. An award of $500 will be given directly to the applicant’s higher education institution based on the applicant’s merit within the competitive pool.
