About the Fund

This scholarship fund is dedicated to the memory of Dr. Norbert S. Marcelle Jr. and Dr. Beatrice L. Marcelle. The Marcelles had several titles during their long and illustrious careers, including pastors, founders, leaders, educators, and social activists. They always gave back to their community and came up with a vision to expand opportunities for higher learning to the most disadvantaged by establishing a scholarship fund.

The scholarship will provide financial assistance to support selected college-bound and vocational school students in achieving their higher education goals. This scholarship is available to the Emmanuel Deliverance Church of God congregation, their family members, and graduating high school seniors from low-income communities in Palm Beach County.
