John Visentin Scholarship Fund A champion for the transformative power of education and innovation

Last year, we lost our dear friend John Visentin, a strong supporter of A Better Chance and the former Vice Chairman & CEO of Xerox. John was a true believer in and champion of the transformative power of education and innovation.

To help ensure John’s passion for education lives on, we have created an endowment, the John Visentin Scholarship Fund, to award scholarships annually to deserving A Better Chance Scholars who are interested in pursuing studies and careers in science, technology, engineering, or math.

Last year we raised over $400,000 for this fund and awarded the first recipients in 2022.
