Kyle Wilson Scholarship Fund

The Kyle  B. Wilson Scholarship Fund

On October 28, 2008, a fabulous and extra-ordinary young man, Kyle B. Wilson, at the tender age of 17 suddenly passed away. Kyle was “One of a Kind” who would light up a room with his smile. His LOVE for life inspired whoever he touched and best of all he was LOVED by ALL. In the short time that we were blessed with Kyles’ presence, his “body of work” exuded a sweet spirit that “will never be forgotten”.


Kyle Wilson Scholarship FundIn honor of Kyle’s memory his family has established the Kyle B. Wilson Scholarship Fund, a non-profit, 501 (c) (3) organization. The fund was created to keep Kyle’s legacy alive while assisting students and their families who find themselves in extraordinary financial circumstances. The scholarship’s funds are intended to help students and their families pay for the many expenses related to quality education.
