Griffins Scholarship Fund YEAR SEVEN
Donation protected
Every year for the month of October (Griffins birthday month), Bryan and I plan on raising funds to replenish the Griffin Shaw Memorial Scholarship Fund. Last year, we were able to give $11,000 (the most yet!!) in scholarship money to special and deserving children at Griffin's wonderful school, ISW Academy (www.itsasensoryworld.org). We were able to give to 3 recepients: Alex ($3000), Hanna ($2500) and Sam ($5500). This is more money in scholarships that we have ever allocated but this years recipients were so well deserving that we could not hold back. Therefore, we are really hoping to raise over our $8500 goal to replenish the fund. This school was such a blessing for us and for Griffin. He has been gone for 7 years and we often question: what would he be saying? How tall would he be? Would he be kicking a soccer ball? And the answer is: he would be doing so many of those things because this amazing school would have provided the environment to encourage and facilitate such milestones. It provides a unique learning environment for children with special needs and learning differences.
The cost for such programs can be overwhelming and this scholarship gave 3 deserving families a bit of a reprieve. Although Griffin would be 13 years old this birthday, his legacy and life live on through his scholarship fund. Please consider donating during the month of October, (no amount is too small) and as always LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE LIKE GRIFFIN!
