New Corsi Family Scholarship Established at Ivy Tech Richmond

Richmond, Ind. – Ivy Tech Community College Richmond is pleased to announce the creation of the Corsi Family Scholarship, designed to support students who face financial challenges as they pursue career-focused education.

The scholarship honors the Corsi family, Italian immigrants who made Richmond their home in the early 1900s and contributed to the community’s stability and prosperity. Today, the family is extending that impact by investing in educational opportunities that will help strengthen Wayne County’s workforce.

“We are deeply grateful for the generosity of the Corsi family,” said Brandi Jackson, Vice Chancellor of Workforce and Development at Ivy Tech Richmond. “This gift not only honors their family’s legacy in Richmond but also ensures that future generations have the chance to build better lives through education. This is the kind of investment that transforms both students and our community.”

A representative of the Corsi family shared, “Our family has always believed in the value of hard work and opportunity. By creating this scholarship, we hope to give today’s students the same chance to build stability and success that earlier generations of our family found here in Richmond.”

The scholarship will be awarded annually to Ivy Tech Richmond students who demonstrate financial need and are pursuing programs that lead to high-demand, high-wage careers.
