Finding Passion through Giving

Giving back and supporting education initially drew Fellows Society member Tony DuBose to NSU. Through his generosity, he was able to explore avenues of interest and found a new passion in helping the environment. DuBose now serves on the board of the Halmos College of Arts and Sciences and Guy Harvey Oceanographic Research Center Dean’s Development Council. The impressive campus and cutting-edge research piqued his interest, and DuBose established the DuBose Family Coral Reefs Endowed Fund to support the research and rehabilitation of coral reefs.
