Scholarship Funds
Donations made to the Alisha C. Levin Memorial Fund are used to fund scholarships and other financial support for Alisha's two Alma Maters: Northeast High School and Hofstra University. The following programs/scholarships were funded in 2023:
Northeast High School - Philadelphia, PA
The Alisha C. Levin Memorial Fund provides 5 or more scholarships to National Honor Society seniors who are continuing their education. These scholarships help pay for books, materials, and laptops as well as dorm supplies, which are not covered by traditional financial aid. This year we were able to double the scholarship amounts due to very generous donations!
Alisha's love of art inspired us to revitalize the Art Program at NEHS and fund a new Graphics Arts/AV Design program. This new program puts students in touch with the latest technologies and allows NEHS to keep classes fully functioning and their students fully engaged. Additionally, this program will be used to create bulletins, year books and many other distributions that are professional looking and current! We continue to support the Alisha C. Levin Science Lab by supplying the lab with Wireless Motion and Acceleration Sensors, hand operated vacuum pumps, micro-scale bell jars, and an acid/corrosive cabinet.
Finally, we were able to supply the school with 34 new iMac computers. These computers will assist in furthering the technological advancement of students in all grades.
