According to the Go Fund Me page by Julie Steel, the scholarship will be distributed each year to a graduate of Malvern Collegiate entering a nursing program as a way to keep Reese’s memory alive.
“We hope that this scholarship can provide some comfort to her family, knowing that Reese will never be forgotten,” Steel says.
