The Lily Tantillo Scholarship is established to honor the legacy of Lily Tantillo, a dedicated and hardworking student who graduated from Northern Arizona University with a major in exercise physiology. Tragically, Lily passed away on July 5, 2025, but her spirit and values continue to inspire others. This scholarship aims to uplift students who embody her dedication, courage, and commitment to justice, particularly those who are high school seniors or current students at Northern Arizona University, with a preference for those majoring in exercise physiology. The scholarship not only provides financial support but also encourages applicants to reflect on how they exemplify Lily's values and how they plan to make a positive impact in their communities.
