Melissa Annunziato Memorial Scholarship

Early in the summer of 2002, Ramapo College junior Melissa Annunziato was tragically killed in a car accident. Melissa was a Literature major working toward teacher certification and was committed to community service. Melissa’s mother, her colleagues, friends and neighbors sought to establish a permanent legacy to Melissa, her spirit and beliefs and established this memorial endowed scholarship fund in 2003. This award recognizes students with similar values as Melissa and is open to students who participate in service-learning opportunities or alternative spring break programs, particularly those who are interested in working with children.
Eligibility:
Students who participate in service learning or alternative break
GPA of 2.75 or higher
