We at Roosevelt University believe in the mission of the 100 Club of Chicago so much that we immediately decided to double the club’s initial request. We are proud to offer two Roosevelt scholarships for the children of fallen firefighters, officers and paramedics. This is the best way we know to express our gratitude to first responders and invest in the future of deserving families. The 100 Club of Chicago’s Educational Assistance Program strikes us as a powerful way to express gratitude for the sacrifices of those who keep us safe. Like the 100 Club, Roosevelt University believes that the families of the fallen should also be remembered.
