Investing in aspiring dancers and community-minded individuals to ensure that Eleanor's legacy continues to inspire excellence, inclusion, and lifelong learning.

About Us

Scholarship Mission and Consideration:

The Eleanor Rubino Memorial Scholarship Fund honors the life and legacy of Eleanora Rubino Terenzi whose passion, dedication, and artistry in dance continue to inspire generations. Our mission is to support and empower aspiring dancers by providing financial assistance to those who demonstrate talent, commitment, and a deep love of dance.

Through this scholarship, we aim to nurture the next wave of artists who, like Eleanora, believe in the transformative power of dance to express, connect, and uplift; one who will continue the spirit of empowerment and excellence that Eleanora cultivated.

Consideration may be given for tuition assistance, participation in conventions, competitions, or enrollment in the National Medal Test Program.

Scholarships will be presented twice a year, with the number of scholarships awarded determined by the available funds. Scholarship recipients are welcome to apply for continued support as they pursue further educational opportunities.
