Established in 1986, the †Father George and Anna Gallos and †Michael Zanakos Music Scholarship has made it possible for aspiring students to further their education in the field of music. It is expected that scholarship award and grant recipients will utilize this training of their talents, in part, in service to the Greek Orthodox Church, to the Federation, and to its church music ministry. May these young people utilize their musical talents for the enhancement of the Southeastern Federation music ministry and to the Glory of God.
