Lynne F. Solon Foundation

Lynne F. Solon Foundation The Lynne F. The Foundation was formed to honor the memory of Lynne Solon, who died from complications of diabetes in 1993 at the age of 42.

Solon Foundation helps fund summer camps for young diabetics, other community outreach, and awards scholarships to students with learning and physical
disabilities. Throughout her life, Lynne exhibited a positive spirit and outlook, never letting her health problems deter her from being a caring, sensitive, loving and thoughtful person who always put the needs of others ahead of her own. In that

spirit, the Lynne F. Solon Foundation has provided nearly $350,000 in financial support for summer camps for youths that are affected by diabetes, family education, and other outreach programs. In addition, the Foundationโ€™s outreach includes scholarships to deserving high school graduates who live with physical or learning disabilities.
