2020 SWE NY Collegiate Scholarship
Einah Pelaez, our SWE New York President, 2016-2018, was a great SWE leader, dedicated to making our section successful and meaningful in many dimensions: professional development, networking, job searches, and outreach activities. Einah was a dynamic person who brought amazing energy and capability to every event and project. She was a warm and loving person who made people feel welcome and comfortable wherever she went. We were fortunate at SWE NY to have Einah share her life with us for over ten years. Einah passed from this life way too soon, and robbed the world and her family of a bright light.
To honor Einah's life, SWE NY will be naming our Scholarship Fund in her honor (The Einah Reza Manalo Pelaez Memorial Scholarship Fund). SWE NY will make a $1000 donation to the fund, in Einah's name.
