Local 372 Scholarship Fund

Parents, since 2002, Local 372 has raised thousands of dollars to give scholarships to children of members who are pursuing college degrees.  The scholarship fund was developed because Local 372 members needed financial assistance to send their children to college.  There was a vision to help members.   Local 372 wanted to help the children of members, many of whom were the first child in the family to attend college, to have the means to better their future. 

No dues go towards the fund.  Money is raised throughout the year by various fundraisers, including the annual dance which is held in the spring and the annual fundraising dinner, held in June.  The disco will be on Friday, May 4, 2012 at DC 37 Headquarters at 125 Barclay Street from 6:00 pm to Midnight.  This year’s dance will be on Thursday, June 28, 2012 from 6:00 pm to 11:00 pm at the Marina Del Ray in the Bronx.  Norman Seabrook, President of the Correction Officers Benevolent Association will be honored.  For more information and tickets, please contact Geri Addario at 212.815.7636.
