The PRSA Orlando/Frank R. Stansberry Scholarship provides financial assistance to one full-time University of Central Florida student majoring in public relations each year. PRSA Orlando recently reached its financial goal of endowing the scholarship by raising $25,000, but there’s still much more to do.
