Geraldo Donato Vertone Biennal Scholarship

Deadline for Submissions: November 30, 2026

The goal of the Geraldo Donato Vertone Biennal Scholarship is to give any student with the desire to further his/her education an equal opportunity to do so. We recognize that academic achievement is important, however we consider effort and genuine desire to learn just as essential. It is a combination of these two elements that ultimately leads to success.

The Geraldo Donato Vertone Biennal Scholarship is open to any student who is willing to work hard toward their education. It is that effort we hope to reward with $400.
