Our family has set up a scholarship through the Special Operations Warrior Foundation in Joe's name. This scholarship was created to celebrate his life, acknowledge his accomplishments and help to make his dream of educating others come true. The purpose of the Special Operations Warrior Foundation is to provide a college education and counseling to every child who has lost a parent while serving in the Special Operations Warrior Command and its units during an operational or training mission. The SOWF is currently committed to providing scholarship grants, not loans, to more than 700 children. These children survive over 600 Special Operations personnel.

Starting in the Fall of 2009, one graduating senior will be chosen to be the recipient of the Staff Sergeant Joseph Curreri Scholarship Fund by the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. This scholarship will continue with the student through all four years of their college education and will help provide for tuition, room, board, books and supplies.
