The Thomas Surdyke Memorial Foundation has established a scholarship endowment of over $50,000 through the Roman Catholic Foundation. This endowment will provide scholarships to Tom's high school alma mater, St. Pius X in Festus Missouri. The application and awarding process of scholarships will be modeled after the appointment process to the United States Military Academy, where Tom's leadership ideals blossomed, amongst the best and brightest young men and women of our nation.
Other leadership opportunities and organizations the foundation hopes to support includes but is not limited to:
St. Louis Military Officer Support Foundation
Missouri Boys State
West Point Association of Graduates
West Point Department of Military Instruction
Boy Scouts of America Eagle Projects
