Amy Bennett Foundation The Amy Bennett Foundation, is a commemorative and fundraising platform for Amy's passions for the arts.

We actively provide financial assistance for youth artists in musical theater at accredited institutions at the high school and collegiate levels. The Amy Bennett Foundation continues Amy’s dreams beyond her passing. Amy was killed in tragic circumstances, in a collision with a truck as she biked to work. In the foundation's first year, we were instrumental in providing biker protection advocacy, and we spearheaded the passage of a 3 foot law in Wyoming. Since 2016, the primary purpose of the Fund has been to create and disburse scholarship funds that are used to enrich the lives of youth and college performers; at Starlight , where Amy got her start, at UNC's Musical Theater Program, and at the Arizona and National Thespian levels.

We are thrilled to introduce you to our most recent ABF Scholarship recipient, Tihun Hann. Tihun was selected at the International Thespian Festival in Bloomington, Indiana. Competition was fierce and Tihun shone brightly! She is an amazing young woman with extraordinary talent.
Here are a few words from Tihun:
"My name is Tihun Hann. I was adopted from Ethiopia as a baby and was raised in Colorado being surrounded by theatre and a whole family of teachers. So, I knew that was something that I needed to pursue in my future. I am soon going to begin to start my BFA in musical theater at PACE University in New York City. Through this degree I not only want to gain a better understanding of myself as a performer and a human being, but to become the best actress I can be. I Also want to learn more about the world around me."

Tihun is thrilled to begin her journey and has big plans for her future (to be shared in out next post).

Congratulations Tihun and welcome to the ABF family!

Announcing our 2026 Arizona State Thespian Scholarship recipient: Ella Kenney 🎭

The Amy Bennett Memorial Scholarship recognizes performers who most exemplify Amy’s passion for singing, dancing, and acting.

Ella was selected for her excellent musicianship and her amazing talent. On the spot, she sang a Frank Sinatra song, Something Stupid. Amy would have loved that! 💕
