History
The
Spagone family went through an experience every parent fears.
They lost their only daughter, Skylur at the tender age of 2 in a
tragic accident.
Skylur's life, however brief, inspired
the establishment of the Skylur J. Spagone Memorial Fund. Established in May 2000,
by a dedicated group of Skylur's family and friends, with the idea and purpose of focusing
the Fund's attention towards children.
Skylur missed her opportunity to learn,
to explore, to play, to grow, to be a child, the vision is simple, no child for any
attainable reason should miss the experiences of life.
Mission and Values
Skylur J. Spagone Memorial Fund works to
enhance the quality of life for children through it's leadership, resources, traditions
and values.
We value the growing process of
childhood, the experiences that are necessary to sustain a healthy development.
We value life and uphold positive
reinforcement in every aspect of the growing process.
We value the trust and respect of each
community and continually strive to earn and sustain that trust, by providing strength and
happiness where we can, in every child's life.
Vision
Skylur J. Spagone Memorial Fund seeks to
enhance the quality of children's lives by providing the resources, which will help in
each community. The Fund believes that it's responsibility, along with the community
is to provide an atmosphere of mutual concern with a Stop, Look, and Listen attitude
towards the large and small details of learning, exploring, playing, and growing.
