In Loving Memory of Erica Marwa Marie

This fund has been created in loving memory of my sister, Erica Marwa Marie — whose light and unshakable spirit continues to live on through everyone who knew her.

The selected organization represents everything that she stood for, and it's a great honor to announce that I have established The Erica Marwa Marie Scholarship in partnership with The Women of Tomorrow Mentor & Scholarship Program.

This organization empowers young women in public high schools facing adversity by pairing them with professional female mentors and providing financial aid to help them reach their full potential.

Every $5,000 raised will be personally awarded to a graduating student in the Women of Tomorrow program who has shown remarkable resilience and ambition despite all odds — a young woman who, like Erica once did, dreams of a better future beyond her life circumstances.

The Erica Marwa Marie Fund will specifically sponsor a student who has been accepted to college but can’t afford the basics — dorm essentials, books, meals, and the everyday supplies that so many take for granted. The goal is to ease that burden and give her the support she deserves as she begins this next chapter of her life.

I can say firsthand that having professional mentorship and even the smallest amount of financial aid would mean the world to a young woman when resources at home aren’t available — it can truly change the course of her life.

In Erica’s memory, it’s my privilege to help create that opportunity for another young woman — to remind her that she is worthy, she is seen, and anything she wishes to create for her life is possible.

The deadline for donations is February 1, 2026.

I will personally be presenting the Erica Marwa Marie Scholarship to the selected student at the Women of Tomorrow Annual Luncheon on Thursday, April 30, 2026 in Miami, FL

Every contribution — big or small — makes a real impact.

If you can’t donate, sharing this fundraiser is also incredibly helpful.

Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity, and for helping keep Erica’s memory alive through the power of mentorship, hope, and possibility.

With love and gratitude,

Ashley Noor
