A Legacy of Love, Resilience, and Purpose

Hello Family,

The Hurt Waller Foundation was born from a remarkable legacy — a story of love, resilience, hard work, and an unwavering belief in the power of family and education.

Lee Hurt and Liza Waller-Hurt did more than raise sixteen children — they built a dynasty of dreamers, doers, and difference-makers. Through humble beginnings, with no formal higher education and the great challenges of raising a large family, they instilled in each child the timeless values of perseverance, kindness, community, and the belief that a purposeful life is a life well lived.

The Hurt Waller Foundation Scholarship exists to honor the spirit of Lee and Liza — to carry forward their legacy by helping future generations rise, dream boldly, and pursue the education they never had. It is our enduring commitment to open doors, transform lives, and nurture a legacy that continues for generations to come. Every applicant is not simply applying for funding — they are joining a living story: one rooted in love, family, and the belief that every life touched has the power to become a legacy in motion.

We've had a number of family members pledge support and express a desire to make financial donations and annual pledges, to keep the Hurt Waller Foundation viable and alive each year. We will be funding the Foundation relying on these donations and other fundraisers throughout the year. If you would like to donate, please use this link to do so. We appreciate your annual pledge amounts each year. If you have not made a 2026 donation yet, please take this opportunity to do so.

Paying Processing Fees and/or Tips are OPTIONAL. In the Summary section before adding your payment, right under your donation amount you will see a Processing Fee default percentage. Click EDIT, to indicate you do not want to cover fees. In the TIPS section, you can change the Tip amount to any amount including $0, however adding this option for tips allows us to avoid paying processing fees. Tips of any amount is appreciated

To every donor, supporter, and family member, we say with pride and purpose, THANK YOU and :

“Let Love Be Our Greatest Aim.”
