Adler Endowed Scholarship

Together, Elaine and Myron (Mike) Adler founded Myron Manufacturing Corporation in 1949, the same year they married. Myron is now an international promotional gifts firm that markets its products exclusively to other businesses and is one of the largest businesses in Bergen County. The Adlers have been involved with Ramapo College since the early 1990s. Mrs. Adler has provided leadership on the Board of Governors of the Ramapo College Foundation and the Adlers’ support has strengthened countless programs at the College–from the theater program to the Havemeyer Edible Garden. In 2007, the Adlers created this award, the College’s 100th endowed scholarship. In 2012, the couple made a $2 million gift to establish the Adler Center for Nursing Excellence, the home of the College’s highly-acclaimed and expanding nursing programs, as well as state-of-the-art labs to enhance the education of all science students. For their ongoing support and leadership, the College recognized the Adlers with honorary degrees in 1999. Sadly, Mr. Adler passed away in 2015 and Mrs. Adler passed in 2023.
