The Figli Di Colombo held their annual student scholarship awards dinner on Monday night at the club located on South Seventh Avenue. The name of the club translates to; “Sons of Columbus” and is made up of members with Italian bloodlines.
The club has very strict guidelines on how students are selected to receive scholarships. This year, they awarded a total of $11,000 in financial assistance to honorees. Some of the requirements are the student’s grades, GPA, volunteer community service, study of the Italian language and culture, and any clubs, sports or activities they are involved in.
