Meet Joseph Gonzalez
After serving in the U.S. Marine Corps and Army, and retiring with a combat-related injury, Joseph turned to SUNY Suffolk to pursue his dream of becoming a history professor.
Because of the donations of generous donors through the Suffolk Community College Foundation, Joseph received a Get There From Here Scholarship, maintained a 4.0 GPA and overcame hurdles to achieve academic success.
A Passion for Helping People
Loye is a Nursing student at SUNY Suffolk who pays for her tuition out-of-pocket—all while balancing a full-time college schedule, job, and family.
Becuase of generous supporters through the Suffolk Community College Foundation, Loye received a paid NY Cancer & Blood Specialists Fellowship and has gained invaluable experience working alongside world-class healthcare professionals. This support allowed Loye to focus on excelling in her rigorous studies and prepare for a career in nursing.
A Gift That Keeps On Giving
"The honors scholarship has given me the opportunity to use the money I could have used for school to help other people."
