Gifts directed to the Carol Sammet Legacy Fund will provide immediate financial assistance to School of Health Professions students facing unexpected hardships during their graduate education, helping them remain focused on their studies and preparing for careers dedicated to improving the lives of patients and communities.
The fund honors the legacy of Carol Sammet, a student of the Orthotics and Prosthetics Program. She was a bright light for her classmates, her faculty, and her patients. Her commitment to her chosen profession resulted in her devotion to giving her time and energy in support of others. When Carol passed away from cancer, this fund was set up to continue her legacy of support and generosity.
