The Greece Chamber Charitable Foundation Board of Directors recently awarded scholarships from the Foundation’s Daniel E. Richardson Memorial Fund in support of three students of the Isabella Graham Hart School of Practical Nursing of Rochester Regional Health: Deanna Rodriguez, Christina Torres, and Amanda Vaccarelli. The Board of Directors are proud to be recognizing and extending the legacy of excellence in nursing that was such a central theme in Daniel Richardson’s life.
In March 2018, the Greece Chamber’s Charitable Foundation established the Daniel E. Richardson Memorial Fund in honor of Daniel Richardson, the Foundation’s first Board Chair and an active member of the Foundation Board of Directors up until his untimely passing in January 2018. Overseen by the Foundation Board and guided by a Fund Committee comprised of business and community volunteers including Dan’s widow, Carol Richardson, the Fund supports grants and initiatives that help young people succeed in school, higher education and the workforce.
Members of the community are invited to join the Chamber Foundation in honoring Dan Richardson’s memory and continue his important charitable work. Gifts in any amount will be greatly appreciated. Individuals can donate to The Daniel E. Richardson Memorial Fund with a tax-deductible gift by contacting Greece Regional Chamber President/CEO Sarah Lentini at Sarah@GreeceChamber.org or (585) 944-5800.
