The Welles Remy Crowther Red Bandana Memorial Scholarship through the Rockland Community Foundation was established by his family as a way of honoring Wellesโ legacy. It awards a $1,000 scholarship to a deserving Rockland County high school graduate choosing to pursue a career in fire and emergency services or health related services.
โWe were delighted to establish the fund with the Rockland Community Foundation,โ says Wellesโ father, Jefferson Crowther. โIt expanded our outreach in helping young people to develop into exemplary adults.โ
Crowther was a 9/11 hero known to survivors as โThe Man in the Red Bandana.โ He helped save several persons from certain death before perishing himself.
