DC Nicholas J. Visconti Award

A Scholarship in Memory of Deputy Chief Nicholas “Nick” Visconti

The Holy Name Scholarship was established by the friends and family of Deputy Chief Nick Visconti to honor his memory and legacy. Whether serving as a firefighter (E-50), lieutenant (E-37), captain (E-48), battalion chief (B-16), deputy chief (Divisions 3 and 14), or a member of the UFOA Executive Board, he epitomized the qualities of each rank, making him one of the most trusted, respected, and well-liked members of the FDNY.

This scholarship honors his service and the personal values that made him such a respected leader and mentor in the FDNY. Nick was known for his amiability, honor, trust, knowledge, dedication to others, and faith.
We congratulate the recipient and encourage you to embrace these values, striving to become a future leader in any organization.
