Born and raised in Brownsville, Texas, Micheal (Mike) Albert Hernandez III
has more than 25 years of experience leading successful businesses,
including D & M Leasing and Hernco, Inc. in Dallas. Known for his generosity,
Mike Hernandez III, a Texas A&M graduate, has pledged to allocate $10
million toward nonprofit programs, including a more than $1 million
scholarship to the Texas A&M Foundation to establish the Brownsville
Scholars Program.
The Texas A&M Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping
students access an affordable education at Texas A&M University. The
Brownsville Scholars Program provides scholarships and stipends to 10
students annually.
Eligible students come from low-income families and display a dedication to
education and personal growth. Students who are awarded the scholarship
automatically become a Brownsville Scholar Ambassador and participate in
the ACREW Living Learning Program where they will receive support and
mentorship from ACREW upperclassmen as they adapt to the college life.
