The San Antonio Police Officers' Association Blue Cares Scholarship was established after the death of San Antonio Police Officer Patricia Calderon. Officer Calderon was 26 years old and served five years with the Department. She was the first female San Antonio Police Officer to be killed in the line of duty.
The SAPOA Blue Cares Scholarship continues to honor all San Antonio Police Officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice. The SAPOA continues to keep their memory alive by awarding college scholarships to deserving applicants wishing to further their education.
Each year, the SAPOA Blue Cares Scholarship awards up to $6,000 to five recipients. Four recipients receive a non-renewable $1,000 scholarship, and one recipient receives a non-renewable $2,000 scholarship. The five recipients will be announced in March, and a check presentation will be hosted by the San Antonio Police Officers' Association.
The scholarship is open to seniors in Bexar and surrounding counties. Applications must be received or postmarked on or before Friday, March 3, 2017.
