We aim to meet the most pressing unfulfilled needs of Park City Area youth. Through our scholarship program, we inspire and grow the social and emotional health of our community's youth by proving proactive opportunities to pursue their passions, give back to the community, and live life to the fullest, just like Sam did.

Bucket List Challenge
Do you have a bucket list? We only recently found out that Sam did. While he was not able to scratch off each item, he made significant progress and lived each day of his short life to the fullest. Our aim is to provide support and knock down barriers keeping you from pursuing your bucket list.
In the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years.
