In 2015, Mr. Urzetta created a scholarship fund to help students with financial need. Since then, he has raised more than $350,000 from alumni and friends like you. These gifts have provided financial aid to a variety of students. Many of whom would not have been able to graduate had it not been for that additional support.
THANKS TO YOU, the growth of The Carm Urzetta Scholarship Fund is also at a tremendous high, but so is the need. This year we awarded aid from this fund to a record number of students!
To honor a man who has dedicated his life to helping kids have an opportunity to succeed:
