SCHOLARSHIPS
The main function of the Danilo and Josephine Foundation is to provide scholarships for deserving students in higher education. This foundation is currently very small, with a limited endowment and a limited ability to provide large scholarships. We believe, however, that any help we can offer to deserving students contributes to those students’ ability to complete their education.
Matulich Foundation, Inc. does not discriminate based on race, color, ethnicity, sex, sexual orientation, age, religion, or any other personal attribute. To qualify for a scholarship, you must be enrolled in an educational institution that accepts students after high school graduation. While the Foundation is small and has limited resources, scholarships are limited to students in Florida schools.
Danilo and Josephine Matulich Scholarships are granted to students in any field without restrictions. The amount of the grant and number of grants depend on the resources of the Foundation and the size of its endowment.
Dr. Erika Matulich, BBA, MBA, PhD, PCM, (1963 – 2018) earned her doctorate from University of Wisconsin. She was Professor of Marketing at University of Tampa and devoted her life to education and animal rescue. The Erika Matulich Memorial Scholarship is designated specifically for students who actively pursue education oriented toward preserving and protecting animals and the natural environment. Donors may designate their contribution specifically for a fund restricted for the Erika Matulich Scholarship.
