An endowment honoring the late attorney Howard E. Alls has been established in perpetuity at Savannah State University (SSU) to reward high-achieving students pursuing the field of law. Eligible candidates include SSU students seeking full-time degrees.
Made possible by Attorney Willie J. Walker, a prominent alumni from the class of 1981, the first donation was received in 1999. Since its inception, the fund has gained more than $24,000 in donations and has been used to award nearly $15,000 toward student scholarships. In June of 2020, the scholarship was converted to an endowment, solidifying funds for future generations.
