Today, Assemblyman Ed Ra (R-Franklin Square) announced that the New York Conference of Italian-American State Legislators is now accepting applications for four $2,500 scholarships. The scholarships will be awarded in June at Italian-American Day, and all winners must be in attendance to receive their awards.
"Over the next few months I strongly encourage the hard-working students in our community to apply for these scholarships," said Ra. "The cost of tuition is at an all-time high, and every bit of assistance helps. Thank you to my colleagues in the Conference of Italian-American State Legislators for continuing to promote these scholarships to deserving students throughout Long Island and all of New York State. Good luck to the applicants in our community."
