Firefighter Scholarship

Sal Mangano, president of Mangano Family Funeral Homes, awarded a $1,000 scholarship to Allison Park, a graduating senior from Half Hollow Hills High School West, at a recent Dix Hills Fire Department monthly meeting.

Mangano Family Funeral Homes has established a scholarship program in partnership with select fire departments to assist graduating seniors who have a firefighter in their family and ensure that students have the resources she needs to succeed. Park, a member of a firefighting family in the Dix Hills Fire Department, plans to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming a physician.

The scholarship is part of the Mangano Family Funeral Homes’  nitiative to give back to the community and foster the growth of future leaders.

“Allison comes from a firefighting family that has served the community with distinction and she has followed in those footsteps by setting a remarkable example for her peers,” said Sal Mangano. “As a strong advocate for higher  education and an avid supporter of local fire departments that serve so honorably, I am proud to support Allison with this scholarship, recognizing her academic performance and passion for public service.”
