East Region Local Government Sales & Partner Engagement Manager
“With the funding that I received from the George Snow Scholarship Fund, I enabled my parents to realize that their labor and the hardships they faced in coming to an unknown land were not in vain. The organization’s funding blessed me with the opportunity to develop and soar during my matriculation at Florida A&M University. I was able to devote my time and countless hours to pursue my passion in technology, law and business. This aided me in graduating in the top 10% of my Computer Science class positioning me for a career with Microsoft. I am forever grateful to the Snow organization for the funding, encouragement and support that has been provided to my family and I. I appreciate Mr. Tim Snow and the team because they truly helped to change the trajectory of my life by seeing more in me than I saw in myself in 1999 when I was awarded my first Snow Scholarship. Thank you!”

Don Estridge High Tech Middle School
Artisitc Motivator (art teacher)
“The George Snow scholarship, and Tim especially, gave me feelings of worth, value, and improved self -esteem. Tim and his aunt came to my home and bought one of my paintings when I was a senior in high school and that made me feel like a real artist. When I got the scholarship I had more confidence in my abilities and peace of mind that the financial burdens of a private university were diminished. I felt validated and powerful in a way that I had not felt before. I still have the picture of my guidance counselor and me from the Palm Beach Post at the awards dinner hanging up in my classroom. When I feel doubtful of my abilities, I think about this achievement.”

“The George Snow Scholarship Fund helped me get to where I am today not only by helping fund my education, but also by providing a system of support and advice along the way. The care packages and check-ins reminded me there was a George Snow family back in Florida who were rooting for me and cared about my success in college and beyond. I’m extremely thankful to the kind and generous people I’ve met through the fund who inspired and empowered me to get to where I am today.”

Office Depot
Marketing Manager
“After receiving my BA from FAU, I was fortunate enough to land a job in marketing. It was an exciting career path that led me to positions with international conglomerates and high-tech start ups, at the same time, I was able to keep my home base and raise my daughter in Boca Raton, one of the most desirable communities in the country. The George Snow Scholarship helped me finance my education and today it offers me a way to give back to my community. Through my volunteer work at the foundation in the last few years, I’ve worked to establish an important outreach to alumni, like me, who have benefited from the scholarship. I also review and interview prospective scholars and, most recently, I’ve become a member of the board. The scholarship that helped me so many years ago has turned into a rewarding, lifelong relationship.”
