Make a Difference

For 43 years, The Susan Fund had provided educational scholarships to Fairfield County CT students diagnosed with cancer. Since its inception, we have distributed more than $2 million in scholarships to over 900 individuals. With your help we can make a difference.


"The Susan Fund Scholarship has been an integral part of my education, providing invaluable support for me to pursue my educational aspirations and my goal of a career in pediatric oncology. The stories of the cancer survivors, patients, and supporters I have encountered along the way, including Susan’s story, are at the heart of my medical career motivations. Susan had bone cancer, like me, and went to high school in my neighboring town, where I used to have soccer games. I may not have had the chance to meet her, but her resilience, commitment to education, and compassion live on in her family, the Susan Fund, and the educational journeys this program supports.""
