Loconti Scholar
In 2019, the Joseph D. Loconti Foundation made a generous donation to provide enduring support for students through summer research fellowships and college scholarships.聽 A portion of the funding was used to establish the Joseph D. Loconti Fund for ACS Project SEED. Each year one student is selected to receive a four- year renewable scholarship to continue their studies in the chemical sciences.
