Moira Smith Fund
Police Officer Moira Smith responded to the terrorist attack on America at the World Trade Center. Moira, a wife and mother to two year old daughter Patricia, selflessly entered the burning towers time and again, each time bringing more victims to safety. When the South Tower collapsed that fateful morning, Moira, who gave the gift of life to so many others that day lost hers. Moira’s family and friends wanted a way to honor their hero’s memory. The Moira Smith Fund was created as a way to help college age women receive an education and better their lives. Thus far, The Moira Smith Fund has provided college scholarships to several exceptional young women, who might not have been able to attend college otherwise.
