In lieu of flowers, we invite you to honor Yodi’s legacy by supporting the next generation of storytellers, leaders, and changemakers.
We would like to establish a scholarship in her name that benefits students with an unmet financial need at her beloved Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University. We will need to raise $100,000 to establish the scholarship, so if you’re able, please make a donation online at http://givetosu.syr.edu/yolon…. You may make a one-time or recurring gift using a credit card, PayPal or Venmo to the Our Time Has Come Scholarship Program. You may also select “my employer will match my gift” at the bottom of the form if your employer matches charitable donations. All donations are tax-deductible. Detailed donation instructions are included in the program.
Thank you for helping us carry forward Yodi’s spirit, generosity, and commitment to lifting others!
