Alex Schachter and Family Memorial Scholarship Fund

Gifts to the Alex Schachter and Family Memorial Scholarship Fund support need- and/or merit-based awards for incoming or continuing undergraduate students who are members of the UConn Marching Band.

The Schachter family of Florida is starting a UConn scholarship in memory of their 14-year-old son who was killed in the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida in February.

Gifts to this fund will help provide scholarships to students who, like Alex, always wanted to play in the UConn marching band.
