Foye Family/Donna Joyce Memorial Scholarship

This scholarship was created by the family of Adam Foye ’23, whose grandmother Donna Joyce was a huge supporter of education, working as an aide, special education teacher, and social worker. She returned to college as a single mother, put her four children through college, and had the opportunity to join Adam as he accepted admission to Ramapo College as a Presidential Scholar.

This scholarship was created in her memory to benefit a Computer Science major, which was Adam’s major during his time at Ramapo.
