Support the Dr. Clarice Ford Scholarship Fund

IN loving memory

Dr. Clarice Ford, Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs and Board Member of The Outlet, passed away Sunday, April 19, 2020, at Memorial Medical Center following a brief illness.

Dr. Ford was a community giant and education advocate. She was instrumental in the development of The Outlet over the past 14 years and was a profoundly important voice for students and diversity, dedicated her time to cultivating inclusive communities and ensuring that every student, regardless of background, has an opportunity to succeed.

This scholarship fund will ensure her legacy lives on through the lives of the Springfield youth she cared so much about. Funds raised will be awarded as a college, university, or trade school scholarship to a youth of The Outlet.
