Foundation

At the time of Lauren’s illness, she was completing a masters degree in history at Portland State University.  Her goal was to become a professor so that she could share her love of history with others.

In Lauren’s honor, a memorial scholarship program has been established at PSU. This scholarship will be granted bianually to a deserving graduate student of history to assist with his or her thesis research. In this way, we hope to keep Lauren’s dream of sharing history with others alive.
