She was the wife of Texas A&amp;M University System Chancellor John Sharp and a passionate philanthropist focused on enriching her community, specifically in humanitarian efforts benefiting women and children.&nbsp;&nbsp;In remembrance, The Texas A&amp;M University System Chancellor\u2019s Century Council is giving each A&amp;M System school $15,000 as seed money to create a scholarship in her name. I ask for your support to grow this award, so that we can celebrate Charlotte Han Sharp each year and give back to our students who need it the most.&nbsp;Now, for a friendly competition. As many of you know, Tarleton Giving Day is April 13th. To honor Charlotte Han Sharp, the President\u2019s Office will give five $1,000 Charlotte Han Sharp Scholarships to the academic college with the&nbsp;<strong>most donors<\/strong>&nbsp;on Giving Day. In addition, Kindall and I will donate five more $1,000 Charlotte Han Sharp Scholarships to the academic college that&nbsp;<strong>raises the most money<\/strong>&nbsp;on Giving Day. Recipients must have graduated from a Texas high school and be in good academic standing.&nbsp;&nbsp;I am thankful for the life and legacy of Charlotte Han Sharp. I hope you will strongly consider joining Kindall and I in supporting this worthwhile endeavor.
