Established by Hudson Valley Guns and Hoses, the Hudson Valley Guns and Hoses Scholarship is available to paid or volunteer firefighters or law enforcement officers, or an immediate relative of a paid or volunteer firefighter or law enforcement officer, who are college-bound or currently enrolled undergraduate or graduate college students in Dutchess, Orange, Putnam and Ulster Counties. The scholarship will be awarded to individuals who will be either undergraduate or matriculated graduate students at any accredited college or university or vocational school in the United States who plan to major in Criminal Justice, Fire Science, Disaster Preparedness and Emergency Management, Public Administration or Emergency Medical Services/Professions. Hudson Valley Guns and Hoses awards five memorial scholarships each year to honor the lives of Hudson Valley Heroes who left us too soon: Sergeant Nigel Barnett Scholarship; Deputy Sheriff Kristopher Cuddeback Scholarship; Sergeant Daniel DiDato Scholarship; Julia "Jules" Eurillo Scholarship, which is awarded to a female student who embodies the living spirit of Jules with her school and community involvement; and Captain Jack Rose Scholarship. Applicants must submit two current letters of recommendation from teachers or guidance counselors, clergy or persons other than family members who are familiar with the applicant's skills and abilities. These letters must have been written within the last six months. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Community Foundations of the Hudson Valley for more information.
