Eric's Scholarship is a non profit organization committed to keeping the memory of Eric alive and sharing his passion of music with our young musicians and school music programs. Eric was a 2001 graduate of Western New York's West Seneca East Senior High school and 2003 graduate of Boston's Berklee School of Music. Eric was tragically killed by a hit and run driver on September 4th 2008. After Eric's passing, his family and friends started a music scholarship in his memory. Through our scholarship program we have been able to positively affect the lives of many children.
A few of our major accomplishments over the past eight years include:
-
Over $60,000 in scholarships have been awarded to graduating students accepted into music programs at their college / university.
-
Providing financial aid to our younger musicians, so they may have opportunity to further pursue music lessons thru summer or beyond school arrangements.
-
Donation of 2 acoustic guitars to West Seneca East High school (Buffalo, NY)
-
Instrument repair program set up between a local music shop and West Seneca high schools.
