Mission
The Ethan Saylor memorial scholarship awards $500 to an individual who embodies the same spirit that Ethan Saylor carried with him.
History
Ethan Saylor lived his life to the fullest. Whether it was rocking out to music, working with law enforcement, or playing the guitar, when Ethan wanted to do something, nothing was going to stop him. This scholarship is designed to help give individuals with Down syndrome to pursue their own dreams, regardless of any perceived limitations. This award is given annually to those who display the same drive and determination to pursue their dreams as Ethan had. Whether your dream is to rent a limo to party with your friends, or to fly with your family for a fun vacation – the Ethan Saylor Memorial Scholarship can support bringing these dreams to life.
“Nothing is as important as passion. No matter what you want to do with your life, be passionate.”
-Jon Bon Jovi, Ethan’s hero
