A. Fraser Bridges Fund

This fund was established during the 1993 Phonathon, when the Bridges pledged an initial $500 to start this fund. Their infant son, born in 1985, died at three months of age from a rare heart defect. They began the fund when Fraser would have been in the second grade with the thought that if he were living, they would be saving money for his college education. They established the fund in his memory to help others with college expenses. Fraser’s mother, Christine Bridges, passed away in 2004.
