Well done! It’s an amazing story to come so far and retain gratitude for the journey… enough to pay it back (forward?). One of your many achievements!
Incredible! I was a C.A.R.E. student at Florida State and first generation college graduate.. wouldn’t have been able to do it without programs like these! 🎉✨
Florida State University is the best investment for any first generation student!
Seeing as FSU is an academic institution, I would kindly ask that the university's profile photo on LinkedIn be reverted back to the school's seal, which is more professional and better representative of most of its alumni as compared to the current athlethics logo. Thank you
Thank you Tony for your generous contribution to FSU.
Thank you Tony! As the former women's basketball coach at FSU, I saw the wonder of a scholarship to first gen college students. Your gift is well-placed indeed!
Inspiring! Thank you for your hard work, grit and ability to pay it forward. Giving back to the world is so important! Go Noles!!
Love seeing fellow first generation students get these opportunities. How wonderful!

2moI was the first in my family to graduate college, and at the time I studied at FSU, financial support was limited to those in direst need. A program that helps first-generation FSU students with financial support on their educational journey will be hugely beneficial. Thank you to @TonyDiBenedetto for his generous gift to future FSU grads. Well done, sir! Go Noles!👏♥️💛
