The Sister Elizabeth Marie Stoup Scholarship Fund was established to honor Sister Elizabeth’s many years of faithful religious service and her lifelong dedication to others. Following her passing in March 2026, this fund continues her legacy of compassion, generosity, and commitment to those most in need.

Through her tireless advocacy, Sister Elizabeth helped raise over $60,000 in support of scholarships for single mothers—an enduring testament to her belief in the transformative power of education and her deep care for families facing educational challenges.

Through the continued generosity of her family, friends, and community, this scholarship stands as a lasting tribute to her work in the field of special education.

The scholarship is awarded annually to a single mother who is raising a child with educational needs and demonstrates perseverance, strength, and a desire to improve her circumstances through education and career training.

Gifts to this fund ensure that Sister Elizabeth’s spirit of service lives on. Contributions may be made as a one-time gift or on a monthly or annual basis.
