The Dr. Thomas N. Pesola Memorial Scholarship fund was established after Tom's death in 2009. A lifelong diabetic who came from humble beginnings, Dr. Pesola relied on scholarship money for the economically and medically unfortunate. In that vein, the fund awards scholarship money to diabetic Massachusetts residents who pursue higher education or attend workshops or camps to learn how to manage their diabetes. For more information, and to access the 2011 scholarship application, click here.

Thank you for your interest in our efforts to honor Tom and benefit the community.
