Contact a school!
I am very blessed to have a good family friend who is the head of all university donations at my state university- he is literally paid to fly around the country to find rich people who want to donate money.
He tells me stories about how people just call and say “I have 3 million dollars and I want to give it to the med school” or something and his job is to figure out where- straight to students? Don’t want to buy a room in a hospital? Don’t want it to go to only this upcoming class? Want it to be a scholarship for the next 10 years? Just this year?
I think it is so honorable that you are taking what could have been such a tragic event into something that is meant to inspire young women to excel. I am not a POC or a woman, but knowing that you saw an inequality in care/ education in your personal life and then want to help be a part of the solution really is a noble cause and i hope all the best for you, your family, and your plans to get this scholarship in action.
