Our story

My mother, Jerrye Chesnes, was the kindest and funniest lady! She was also a fantastic mother, friend and was incredibly bright. She was so good at so many things. She left pursuit of her college degree in her early twenties to raise my brother and I, but returned to higher education years later. I think she would want us to help other women like her achieve their dreams through scholarship.

Our goal

A memorial fund honoring Jerrye Chesnes, dedicated to scholarships for mothers returning to college after a hiatus to raise children.

I am a woman who returned to school for a second Master degree after staying home with children. I support the reasons for this scholarship!
