Solid Rock Baptist Church has been led to establish a scholarship fund in Matthew Allred's name.  Establishing this fund will be a memorial to his testimony and how he loved the youth of the church, always encouraging them to excel.

Donations to this scholarship fund will assist the church's youth, as well as youth of the community, many whose lives were touched by Matthew, in continuing their education.  Please forward your contribution to:
