Thank you to our sponsors!

Amanda and Noah Rosenfarb have been a Viner Scholar sponsor since 2019. This year they chose to sponsor Viner Scholar Michael Kronick through his 4 years of college. Michael is attending UCF studying Business.

When asked why they want to sponsor a Viner Scholar they said, "As the song goes, we “believe the children are our future. Teach them well and let them lead the way.” It’s a great joy to give the gift of education and even more so to do it through a comprehensive program that supports students with more than just money. Thanks to the effort of Eda, Cliff, Niki and the team they created, Viner Scholars are more likely to graduate, creating confidence that our investment in a promising young student will generate a long term outcome."

Thank you to our New Sponsor

Dr. Nicole Edeiken generous donation will sponsor Viner Scholar Maya Lopez. Maya is attending UF in hopes of becoming a Speech Language Pathologist.

When asked why she wants to sponsor a Viner Scholar she said "I have always held the deep belief that receiving an education is critical and I have been determined to ensure that children who yearn for a brighter future through a better education have the opportunity to pursue that education regardless of their financial means. Helping a child and their family access an education is not only an aspiration but an obligation for me. I am thrilled to be supporting the Viner Scholars program. The founders, Eda and Cliff, share my values and their foundation is a responsible and innovative steward. They are changing the lives of these scholars, helping them achieve their dreams and to shape a better future for them and our community at large."
