The Enrico Fermi Educational Fund of Yonkers, NY is a non-profit organization that was founded nearly 60 years ago.  It began as a vision of several individuals, led by Mr. Michael Vitulli, to generate financial support for Italian-American students who reside in Yonkers to further their education.  Today, we are pleased to offer additional financial support to several students throughout Westchester County.  This year $45,000 in scholarships were given to students who demonstrate outstanding commitment to academics and their communities.  In our 59 years, we have provided over 400 scholarships totaling well over $1,000,000.
