FCA's Scholarship Breakfast
Helping Local Youth to Succeed in the Pursuance of their Educational Goals
Many of our young people face significant challenges in accessing quality education and achieving academic success. Some students lack the financial resources and support to pursue higher education despite their talents and potential- This is where the generosity and support from FCA's donors can make a real difference.
For 39 years, FCA has provided over 1,500 scholarships worth over $2 million to Long Island's needy young students. Your donation to our cause will enable us to offer local at-risk youth the resources and support they need to succeed academically. Whether it's through scholarships, tutoring programs, or mentorship opportunities, your donation will make it possible for these young people to realize their full potential and achieve their dreams.
FCA's Scholarship Breakfast
One of the unique facets of the reception is the interaction between donors and scholars, who sit together and share in the breakfast festivities. This event offers scholars a rare opportunity to mingle with professionals who may be able to guide them in their future careers.
The 2023 Scholarship Fund Breakfast will be held on June 28, 2023 at 8:30am (doors open at 8am), Samanea New York (1500 Old Country Rd, Westbury, NY 11590).
By investing in the education of our local youth, you will be helping to create a brighter future for our entire community. Not only will you give these scholars the tools they need to succeed, but you will also be helping to build a stronger and more prosperous Long Island for all.
Thank you for participating! See you on June 28!
