Description
The mission of The EMILY Fund is to continue Emily Rachel Silverstein’s legacy of hope in action for a more peaceful, just and sustainable world, through education, mentor-ship and creating and disseminating educational resources to facilitate individuals and student-centered organizations to experience local and global social change through community building activities.
In layman's terms, this is primarily a scholarship fund created in memory of Emily Rachel Silverstein, who on April 9, 2009 was viciously murdered by her ex-boyfriend at Gettysburg College where she was finishing up her sophomore year. The fund was created as a vehicle for those she left behind to continue the incredible work Emily herself was involved in.
