Major La-Goge W. Graham Memorial Scholarship
Major La-Goge W. Graham had committed his life to serving others through his military, ministry and teaching career. He was well-loved and respected by his students and always found a way to give back to his community.
Major “Go” Graham devoted years of his life organizing parades, planning “Weekend in the Woods” with his cadets, food banks for veterans, and students, serving his community through the agape love of Christ, while he and his wife fostered many children in need of a safe home. But his true passion was teaching his students about the privilege of being able to serve others.
After a hard-fought battle with cancer, he passed away on January 5th, 2021. His legacy and mission to serve the community can continue by inspiring future generations to give back to their community through this scholarship.
This scholarship seeks to honor Major La-Goge W. Graham and support graduating JROTC cadets or undergraduates in ROTC programs in the United States.
