Hazlewood obtained state support for the Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum in Canyon and even helped to maintain the museum for a time with his own financial backing. He left his papers to the museum and contributed $20,000 toward the construction of the museum archives. The Hazlewood papers are hence available to researchers through WTAMU. Hazlewood sponsored the creation of Texas' first municipal hospital supported by [[property tax]]es. The hospital, located in Amarillo, became subsequently a model for other cities. Through a gift from his estate to the Amarillo Area Foundation, several scholarships for Panhandle students are still offered in Hazlewood's name.<ref name=agn/> | Hazlewood obtained state support for the Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum in Canyon and even helped to maintain the museum for a time with his own financial backing.
