"'Smart enough' wins every time if it can be coupled with personality, social grace,
and respect for your fellow man."
- Tom Pesola
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 Massachusetts residents who pursue higher education, diabetes research, or attend workshops or camps to learn how to manage their diabetes. Scholarship applications now available!
To begin our fundraising efforts, we hosted a benefit dinner and auction on August 22 at the Hillview Country Club, and we will have the first annual Tom Pesola Memorial Golf Tournament next year at the Kernwood Country Club on August 23. To participate in the golf tournament, or to learn more about Tom, please click on the links to the left.
Thank you for your interest in our efforts to honor Tom and benefit the community.
