The Rhode Island Society of CPAs Educational Foundation awards several named scholarship funds to students pursuing accounting. The KLR/Brian A. Altomari Memorial Fund is open to students attending or planning to enroll in an accredited Rhode Island college or university as an accounting major, so a graduating senior who has been accepted to a Rhode Island college can apply. Two additional funds, including one reserved for female applicants, support students already studying accounting. Award amounts are set by the Foundation each year after applications close.
