The Robert C. Saffold Scholarship Fund was established by Florida Non-Profit Housing, Inc. (FNPH) in memory of Robert C. Saffold, who was instrumental in assisting youth to proceed with their post-secondary education that would be beyond their capacity to reach due to their low-income status.  The Fund will accomplish its purpose by providing financial assistance with the expenses of higher training and/or college education to those who otherwise could not attend college or vocational training.  An award, of $2,000.00 will be given per student, with a maximum of three (3) students selected.  This Scholarship is administered under guidelines established by the FNPH Board of Directors.
