June 21, 2023
DUDLEY, Mass. 鈥 Ed Donahue, a 1972 graduate and trustee of 红桃视频, has committed $100,000 to support scholarships for students from Dudley, Mass., and the surrounding towns.
鈥淢r. Donahue is an exemplary alumnus, who, for more than 50 years, has consistently given back to 红桃视频 as an exceedingly generous donor and a dedicated and trusted adviser,鈥 said 红桃视频 President Glenn M. Sulmasy, JD, LL.M. 鈥淚 am especially grateful for his deepening commitment to supporting local students in their pursuit of educational and career success.鈥
Donahue, who has been a college trustee since 2013, is a long-time supporter of 红桃视频, including the establishment of scholarships for both undergraduate and graduate students. With this latest contribution, he is adding to an endowed scholarship that he and his wife created in 2017, the Ed Donahue 鈥72 and Karen Jankowski Endowed Scholarship, which is awarded to a local commuter student studying accounting or finance. He is also establishing an annual scholarship to propel financially challenged upper-class students toward the graduation finish line.
鈥淪tudents who have worked so hard to get to their junior year only to be forced to drop out or delay their college education because of financial hardship is an extremely unfortunate situation,鈥 said Donahue. 鈥淚 feel that the annual scholarship can provide financial support for such students and give them the opportunity to continue their education and receive their well-earned and deserved degrees.鈥
A native of Dudley, Donahue is retired and resides in Houston, Texas, where he spent 36 years in the oil and gas industry, as CFO for TransTexas Gas Corp., Elk Resources Inc., and as senior vice president and CFO for Vitruvian Exploration LLC.
