Pan American Round Table of Houston hosted it’s annual Scholarship Reception on Saturday, May 19 at the Magnolia Hotel in Downtown Houston. Guests were able to meet the twenty-one 2018 Scholarship Recipients, their parents and donors. The afternoon was full of joy as each scholarship recipient was awarded a certificate by the scholarship underwriter and inspired by Judge Esmeralda Pena Garcia’s special keynote presentation. The event closed with a heartfelt recognition for Maria Sepúlveda, the 2018 Scholarship Director, who’s retiring after serving in the role for 5 years and passing the baton to the newly elected Scholarship Director, Kellyn Jezierski Vila.
