🎓🦞 SCHOLARSHIP WINNER ANNOUNCEMENT 🦞🎓

Because of this incredible community, we are honored to announce the recipient of the 2026 Boiling with the Badges Scholarship.

Congratulations to ✨ Elsa Carrillo ✨, a graduate of Itasca High School in Itasca, Texas.

Elsa was selected for her passion, dedication, and commitment to serving others and making a positive impact in the lives of those around her.

She will be attending Hill College as she continues pursuing her future goals and aspirations.

This scholarship represents more than financial support — it represents a community coming together to believe in and invest in the next generation.

We are incredibly proud to support Elsa’s journey and cannot wait to see the impact she makes in the future.

Thank you to everyone who attended, donated, sponsored, shared, and supported Boiling with the Badges. Because of YOU, we were able to give back in a meaningful way.

🦞 Bigger than a boil… it’s about impact. 🎓

Mark your calendars for next years event!
