As a tribute to my parents who encouraged me to pursue a college education and as a means to give back to my community, I created The Rafi Rodriguez Samalot Scholarship Fund in collaboration with the Dayton Foundation.  I sincerely appreciate your support in giving a deserving Hispanic and a Non-Hispanic American an opportunity to make a positive impact in their community with a degree in engineering, finance, or special education from Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio.

Thanks for your support,

Jose “Rafi” Rodriguez Samalot
