"I am incredibly proud that the Thomas W. McCormick Scholarship Fund continues to expand its scholarship support to Broward County high school and college students looking to immerse themselves in foreign language, culture and diplomacy through travel.
Thank you for all your support in sponsoring a RECORD NUMBER OF STUDENTS for the cultural experience of their lives.
With your kind help, we strive to raise the number of scholarships we can provide each year. Thanks to all the supporters who made this miracle possible!
Our wonderful City of Fort Lauderdale is getting exposure through Education, Culture and Diplomacy with the city of Rome, our Sister Cities of Venice and Rimini in Italy, Duisburg in Germany, Quepos in Costa Rica, and Belo Horizonte in Brazil.
I invite everyone to attend our fundraising events throughout the year, join our forces as supporting members, and consider volunteering with our very special program that prioritizes formative growth for young adults through cultural exchange.
Looking forward to another impactful year!"
Sincerely,
Nuccia McCormick
