Quarterly, DePaul students raise money to sponsor a fund for 2 Chicago Public School district seniors to receive 4 years of tuition at DePaul. Why?

Out of 100 freshmen entering a Chicago high school, only six will end up earning a bachelor's degree.

"So right now, I work full time for a luxury real estate agent as her executive marketing assistant. Studying full time this is my last quarter! This is all thanks to Sid Feldman and all the support I’ve received the past four years. I’ll be the first of my family to graduate college!"- Daniela Rozo

Preparing to graduate this June - Alicia’s currently enrolled in 5 classes, is a booking intern at Lincoln Hall + Schubas Tavern, and works part-time as a Vans student marketing manager via Neato Agency. Avidly seeking a full-time position integrating her passions for marketing and music, the educational and network-building opportunities she’s experienced would not have been possible if it weren’t for the Sid Feldman Legacy Fund. Without having had been awarded this scholarship, she wouldn’t have been able to pursue higher education nor would she have had the option to accept unpaid internships - in which she gained valuable experiences.

"I am currently a sophomore, on the board of the Midwest Association of Hispanic Accountants, and have worked on campus at DePaul as well as interned at an accounting firm. This scholarship bridged the gap between me and a college education, between me and a world of opportunities to succeed and prosper and for that, I am incredibly grateful." -Pedro Mejia

"The Sid Feldman program has made college more attainable and has opened many doors for me to be able to get my education here at DePaul! While I may not get financial aid, I still am covered with this scholarship and by continuing with the program I will be one of the first in my family to graduate from a four-year university" -Christian Gordon

Wow! What a great article in DePaul Newsline about the Sid Feldman Legacy Fund.

We could do it without the incredible students who made this idea a reality. Thank you for your time, commitment and support - and let's get more students fired up about Sid Feldman!
