SK Joe Budzisz chaired the KC1834 Scholarship Committee.

The scholarship was formed in February 2011 by the Bryan Knights of Columbus #1834 in honor of Matthew Budzisz, a 2011 graduate of Bryan High School. Matt worked hard throughout his years in school struggling with learning disabilities. However, he graduated from high school and completed vocational classes. His family recognized the need to honor him and all students who overcome their challenges and succeed. With the donation and support of KC Council #1834, these students can continue their education through a 4-year college, a 2-year college, a vocational school or a job training.
