Westbury Students Awarded Scholarships

The Fredrick D. Schaufeld Scholarship Fund administered by United Way of Long Island, has awarded two local Westbury students $5,000 scholarships for college.  Christina Ayala will attend Stony Brook University to study Occupational Therapy and Brianna Ridley will attend Fordham University and major in International Business.  Both Westbury High School Graduates will begin college this Fall.

The Fredrick D. Schaufeld Scholarship Fund provides financial assistance to students from Westbury High School to help them attend college or vocational school and hopes to improve educational outcomes.  The fund continues the cycle of goodwill among students.  Recipients become part of the “Schaufeld Scholarship Fund Family,” a network of alumni who act as role models for other members of the community.
