The Rick Williams Memorial Scholarship

Portrait of Fire Captain Rick Williams

The Santee Firefighter Association is honored to work with the Williams family with establishing an annual Scholarship in memory of Rick Williams. Rick was a vital member of our department where he retired as a Fire Captain and contributed countless hours educating our community on fire prevention through our LAFS program. Rick helped raised thousands of dollars to cancer research through various programs and events. Captain Williams is truly missed. With the help of of the Williams family we are now offering an annual scholarship to any child of a current or retired San Diego County firefighter.

  • Have a GPA of 3.0 or higher.
  • Son or daughter of San Diego County Firefighter.
