Joseph James Morelli Legacy Foundation

The Joseph James Morelli Legacy Foundation supports young adults with learning differences by awarding scholarships toward obtaining a degree in a STEM field. The financial support that we provide may be used towards tuition, books, testing, tutoring, assistive technology, or any other resource that students require to obtain accommodations and navigate an often highly stressful and challenging learning environment. In addition to financial support, our scholarship awardees tell us that the scholarship offers recognition, provides confidence, and validates their struggles; emotionally, socially and academically. 2024 is our 10th year of supporting students. To date, we have awarded over $700,000 through 415 scholarships to over 210 students from 41 states.
