Our story
Cammy was an extraordinary individual whose presence left an indelible mark on the lives of all who knew her. Her impact will never be replaced nor forgotten, regardless of the fact that she is no longer with us. While witnessing her battle with cancer was undeniably difficult, her journey was equally inspiring. Cammy refused to allow her illness to define her, choosing instead to live each day with purpose, grace, and determination.
Throughout her treatment, she continued to travel, volunteer, and work, consistently placing the needs of others above her own. Cammy had an unmatched ability to uplift those around her—offering support, kindness, and laughter even while facing her own struggles behind closed doors. She had a rare gift for turning difficult days into brighter ones and bringing comfort to those who needed it most.
Words cannot fully capture the remarkable person Cammy was. She was beyond amazing and deserved far more than what she was given. While she should still be here—healthy and living the life she loved—it would mean more to her than anything to know that her legacy and story continue, inspiring others and making a lasting difference in the world.
Our goal
Funding this scholarship transforms loss into hope while honoring the legacy of Cammy Castor Hipp. Cammy’s courageous six-year battle with Stage IV lung cancer inspired everyone around her to live by her mottos, “Never Give Up” and “Stronger Than the Storm.” This scholarship ensures that her strength and compassion continue to make a difference.
Donations directly support a deserving student who has been personally impacted by cancer, helping ease the financial burden of education while offering encouragement and hope. More than an award, this scholarship represents resilience, perseverance, and belief in the future.
By contributing, donors help carry forward Cammy’s incredible and inspiring story—ensuring her legacy lives on through education, service, and lives changed.
