Dear Alviani Family, I want to express my heartfelt appreciation for being selected as the recipient of the Tony Alviani Memorial Scholarship. It means so much to me to be recognized in this way, and I'm truly grateful for your support. Receiving this scholarship will make a real difference in my ability to focus on my education without worrying as much about finances. Your help ensures I can dedicate myself fully to my studies and continue working toward my degree in computer science at Robert Morris University. As a sophomore and a proud computer science major, my goal is to use technology to solve real-world problems and, eventually, give back to communities like Aliquippa and New Brighton that shaped who I am. I'm honored to carry on Tony Alviani's legacy through this scholarship, and learning about his impact motivates me to strive for excellence both in school and in life. Your family's dedication to helping students in memory of your dad is truly inspiring. I feel privileged to be part of this mission, and I hope to one day support others as you have supported me. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. Thank you, Torress Hatten

Dear Alviani Family, When I first received the email that I had won your Dad's scholarship, I was stunned. I couldn't believe that my story, over everyone else's, had been chosen. I cannot express how honored and grateful I am to receive such an award. It feels as though my experiences, as well as my father figure's, are being recognized and shown that they matter. Losing my Dad has been a difficult journey, but to know that there are people looking out for me in his place let me know that I can overcome anything. I hope that, with this scholarship, I can accomplish things that will make your family proud and honor your father. Best, Sofia Schnerr
