Thanks to Rhode Island Limb Co. owner Bill Teoli’s $15,000 donation, graduate students in the University of Rhode Island’s physical therapy program now have their first source of scholarship support.

Standing (L-R): Jonathon Teoli, Bob Larkin, Bill Teoli, Courtney Teoli, Danielle Teoli, Dr. Mark Rowinski.

The Albert P. Teoli Sr. Endowed Scholarship, established in the name of Bill’s father, a World War II Veteran and amputee who assumed ownership of the company in 1958, will go to a local physical therapy student who is interested in prosthetics.

This endowed scholarship, the first ever in the university’s P.T. program, is evidence of the strong relationship that has developed between the program and R.I. Limb in recent years.

Earnings on the endowment will provide future funding for the Teoli scholarship.
