A scholarship fund honoring a Sept. 11 victim has raised more than $1.5 million and supported over 100 students at Harcum College in Bryn Mawr.

Kevin D. Marlo was 28 and working as an associate director of equity sales and trading at Sandler O'Neill & Partners. He was on the 104th floor of Two World Trade Center when he was killed in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. His father, Dennis Marlo, is a longtime Harcum College trustee. His sister, Christine Marlo-Triemstra, graduated from Harcum in 2000.

The college launched an annual golf classic in 2000 to raise scholarship money. In 2002, the event was renamed the Kevin D. Marlo Golf & Racquet Classic. Proceeds fund partial tuition scholarships for students who maintain at least a 3.0 GPA and demonstrate financial need, according to Harcum's scholarship page. Preference goes to second-year students in allied health sciences who show a commitment to community service. No separate application is required.

James Mallon, a physical therapist assistant student in Harcum's class of 2027, is among the recipients. "Receiving the Kevin D. Marlo Scholarship means more to me than I can fully express," Mallon said in a Harcum College post on Patch published Sept. 9. "It has allowed me to focus on my education without the constant stress of financial burden."

Beyond the scholarship, the Marlo family made a $250,000 lead gift in 2006 to renovate the college's Little Theatre. The renovated space was renamed the Kevin D. Marlo Theatre, according to Harcum's website. The theatre is open to community members for meetings, music and theater performances.

Before his career in finance, Marlo pursued acting. He appeared as an extra in Woody Allen's film "Celebrity" and was filmed on "The Tonight Show," according to a Voices Center for Resilience memorial. A week before his death, he finished shooting an episode for a WB Network reality dating show that included scenes outside his World Trade Center office. In a profile preserved by the Voices Center, Dennis Marlo described his son as someone who lived fully and never held back.

Marlo's name is inscribed on panel S-50 of the National September 11 Memorial's south pool in New York.

Harcum College posted on Instagram on Friday, Sept. 11, asking the community to remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost, including Kevin D. Marlo, for whom the Little Theatre is named.
