Congratulations to our 2025 Scholarship Recipients

Congratulations to our 2025 Sacramento Hotel Association scholarship recipients! Each student earned a $5,000 scholarship to assist with the education costs. With a record number of applicants, the decision was not easy, but two students stood out in interviews conducted by board members.

Our first winner, Zachary Chan, has attended Sacramento City College and is transferring to University of Hawaii majoring in Hospitality Management. His long-term career goal is to hold a management position with a major hotel brand where he can contribute to an exceptional guest experience and lead a team of fellow service driven professionals.

Our second winner, Braeden Mann, is attending California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo. Braeden is a Business Administration major who has been obsessed with numbers from a young age and dreams of using his skills to help companies grow and become more efficient.

It is honor for our association to support these young people as they prepare to work in a community, we all feel so passionate about.
