Our story

Sarah was a survivor of ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome) at the age of 15. Being out of school for an extended period of time at such a crucial age in social development had a major impact on Sarah's life. Sarah shared her emotions so intensely, always. This passion to give back to those that have walked a mile in her shoes was something that burned greatly in her. Sarah was a compassionate and deeply caring woman that never knew a stranger. She is greatly missed.

Our goal

I wanted to create this scholarship fund as a way to honor the life of my late fiance, Sarah Kathryn Eber. She passed away August 14th 2022, suddenly, in her sleep, 6 days before our wedding. Sarah is survived by myself, David Pollitt, our beautiful son, Austin Pollitt and her wonderful family. I wanted to help support the dream and legacy that Sarah didn't get to see through here on Earth. I would like to offer 2 $500 scholarships to 2 students that share a similar passion and understanding for life that Sarah did.

Sarah was a beautiful and smart young woman. She would help anyone without a thought so it’s only right to support this cause because she is glowing in heaven watching something so important to her happen in her memory.
