Trustees of the Former Agents of the FBI Foundation recently awarded a scholarship for the 2014-15 academic year to Tilon Pervenecki of Wellington.
Pervenecki will attend the University of Arizona in Tucson. His father, David Pervenecki, is a graduate of the FBI National Academy.
The funding is based in part on an endowment made by the late Mrs. Rosamond Woodruff Morgan in honor of her husband, Judge Roy L. Morgan. Selection is based on a student’s financial need, academic achievement, leadership and/or community involvement.
The foundation is the philanthropic arm of the Society of Former Special Agents of the FBI Inc., located in Dumfries, Va. For the 2014-15 academic year, the foundation will award a total of 261 scholarships ranging from $1,000 to $20,000 per year.
