STAN SAMUELSON SCHOLARSHIP FUND c/o The Cape Cod Foundation 261 Whites Path, Unit 2 South Yarmouth, MA 02664 stansamuelsonscholarshipfund@gmail.com December 2021 Re: Now managed by The Cape Cod Foundation Dear Friends: Stan Samuelson was a tireless ally of the LGBTQ Community, and served as the GSA liaison for Cape Cod PRIDE for several years. Tragically, on April 21, 2020, Stan lost his life to Covid 19. Prior to volunteering for Cape Cod PRIDE, Stan had worked as an engineer, social worker, teacher, coach, and GSA advisor, and had volunteered for many community organizations and causes. Cape Cod PRIDE decided that the best way to honor this man, who had done so much for so many others, was to establish a Scholarship Fund in his name. Each June (PRIDE month), the Stan Samuelson Scholarship Fund (SSSF) Committee plans to award scholarships to seniors graduating from a Cape and Islands high school, who plan to continue their education, and like Stan, are committed to promoting LGBTQ equality through community service. The SSSF Committee is very grateful to Cape Cod PRIDE for managing the Scholarship Fund since 2020. Although the SSSF Committee will continue to raise money for the Fund, and select the scholarship awardees each year, the SSSF will now be managed by the Cape Cod Foundation, which manages many scholarship funds. Your past support enabled us to award $2,000 Scholarships in June 2021 to two outstanding Cape Cod and Islands high school seniors. Please help keep Stan's legacy alive by continuing to support this Scholarship Fund. If you have already made a donation for the 2022 Scholarships – Thank you! Please make note of the new ways to donate to the Stan Samuelson Scholarship Fund in the future.
