Jewish college and university students have until May 31 to apply for a 2026 Sylvia Tuman Scholarship.

Since its launch in 2016, more than $200,000 has been awarded. “It makes a big difference,” said 2025 recipient Anastacia Gold, noting, “The extra support allowed me to access more tools to help me succeed.” Applicants must be enrolled in or accepted into an accredited undergraduate or graduate educational institution in Miami-Dade or Broward counties; preference is given to Miami-Dade students.
