Beierle Family Endowed Scholarship

Brooke and Joey Beierle are honored to support the mission of Sam Houston State University through this scholarship. A proud Bearkat and first-generation college graduate from the Class of 2004, Brooke credits SHSU with providing the foundation for her personal and professional success. Today, the couple owns and leads Vanco Ring Gasket Specialty Corporation, a third-generation family manufacturing business serving customers across the U.S. and internationally—an achievement made possible in part by the education and experiences gained at SHSU. Their scholarship reflects a deep commitment to education and a desire to support students who, like Brooke, are first in their families to pursue a college degree. The Beierles hope each recipient is not only empowered by this opportunity but also inspired to give back and create opportunities for others. Through this gift, they are proud to leave a lasting legacy that will help future Bearkats grow, lead, and achieve.
