As a former beneficiary of the scholarship program, I am thrilled to be a part of this organization providing the children of Jefferies employees with assistance and encouragement as they pursue their academic goals. Winning the scholarship allowed me to focus on my studies and participate in a 3-year internship in sports medicine while obtaining my undergraduate degree in psychology and graduate degree in education.

Regina De Wetter, Coordinator, Jefferies Family Scholarship
