Adam Ferrari Announces 2026 Health Science Scholarship to Support Students Dedicated to Caring for Patients with Physical Disabilities
IRVINE, Calif., Feb. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Adam Ferrari, the Chief Executive Officer of Phoenix Energy, is pleased to announce the launch of the 2026 Adam Ferrari Health Science Scholarship, a $20,000 academic award designed to empower the next generation of healthcare professionals who are committed to providing exceptional care for individuals with physical disabilities.
The scholarship was established in honor of Daniel Ferrari, Adam Ferrari’s father, who was diagnosed with transverse myelitis and became quadriplegic. Through this initiative, the Ferrari family aims to recognize and support students entering the health sciences who exemplify academic excellence, compassion, and a dedication to serving others. Now in its fifth year, the $20,000 award has become a beacon of opportunity for students aspiring to make a meaningful difference in the healthcare field.
“At the heart of this scholarship is a belief that compassionate, high-quality care changes lives,” said Adam Ferrari. “We want to support students who are not only academically accomplished but also deeply motivated to serve others—especially those living with physical challenges.”
