The Foundation they established provides scholarship grants to qualified students at Palm Beach Atlantic College who wish to pursue their academic goals through higher education but cannot otherwise afford to do so. By supporting education, the Foundation seeks to promote free enterprise and foster the values of leadership, high ideals, and social responsibility that develop as a result of the student's hard work and personal effort. Applicants must be qualified high school graduates who demonstrate need, with emphasis being placed on students from middle income families.
