SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Michael F. Contestabile Memorial Fund
Submission deadline is June 30, 2022
The Michael F. Contestabile Memorial Scholarship (MFC Memorial Scholarship) presented by the Pancreatic Cancer Association of WNY is a one-time grant of $1,000.00 to be awarded annually. It is open to high school and college students who have been directly affected by pancreatic cancer due to a parent being diagnosed or have suffered the loss (death) of a biological parent(s) due to pancreatic cancer. Scholarship is awarded to a student(s) annually and does not discriminate by ethnicity, race, religion, or gender.
The MFC Memorial Scholarship was created by Michael's three children (Savannah, Michela, and Michael) to honor his memory. They wanted to help other families who have lost a parent to pancreatic cancer by offering financial assistance for college. It is funded in part through proceeds from the annual PCAWNY Golf Tournament held in memory of Michael F. Contestabile.
