The scholarship was created to honor the memory of 5-year-old Eric Dostie, a boy with hemophilia who was tragically murdered on August 27, 1994. Awards provide financial assistance to students who meet scholarship qualifications and who have hemophilia (or a similar bleeding disorder) and/or a family member with a bleeding disorder. Applicants submitted an essay describing how their education will be used to serve others and to encourage self-improvement and enrichment.
“We’re eternally grateful to have been able to assist in a small way by helping with educational expenses for young students living with a chronic bleeding disorder,” said Patrick M. Schmidt, chief executive officer of FFF Enterprises. “Eric’s life was tragically cut short by the fear of an economic burden on a family associated with caring for a child diagnosed with hemophilia. We hope that each of this year’s inspirational winners takes a moment to reflect on Eric’s memory, as this small blessing serves as a tribute to his legacy. May Eric’s story continue to touch us as deeply today as it did 31 years ago.”
