This annual winter event raises scholarship funds for students with challenging financial needs. It is open to the public and features a wonderful meal and an inspirational message by a well-known Christian speaker.

2024 Scholarship Luncheon

The 2024 Scholarship Luncheon featured Samford alumna Trudy Cathy White ‘79, author of four books, philanthropist, former missionary and only daughter of Truett Cathy, the founder of Chick-fil-A.

All in attendance were inspired by Trudy's message and by the powerful testimony of a current scholarship recipient. Trudy shared from her most recent book, A Legacy that Lasts, encouraging guests to live intentionally to pass on their values. With record-breaking attendance, the Valentine’s Day event raised funds to provide transformational, need-based scholarships.
