The Nunzio Polichene Scholarship Fund is a small, education-focused fund that awards modest, student-specific tuition scholarships to named undergraduates. Grants are directed to public and private universities (notably Kent State, University of Akron, and Capital University) and appear targeted to individual students rather than institutions or programs. Though based in Indianapolis, most awards go to Ohio institutions, suggesting a personal or regional connection. The foundation gives uniform, one-off scholarships of similar size.
Small, uniform one-off grants (~$1,000) concentrated in student tuition awards; repeated support to Kent State indicates a recurring relationship but overall giving is limited and targeted rather than broad or multi-year.
