Vincent D. Pavese Scholarship
The Vincent D. Pavese Scholarship was established years ago as a memorial to Vincent D. Pavese, a former President and Chief Professional Officer of United Way of Passaic County. Mr. Pavese held this office until his untimely death in January 1993. The Pavese family established a scholarship to honor the memory of Mr. Pavese and his commitment to community and service.
United Way of Passaic County is currently accepting applications for the Vincent D. Pavese Scholarship. Scholarships will be awarded to two Passaic County high school seniors who have exhibited a commitment to community service and who plan to pursue a career in public service such as government, social work, health care, and education.
