Amy Rose Grabina Foundation, Inc. In memory of Amy Rose Grabina 1/12/92 - 7/18/15 Where her journey would have taken her, we’ll never know.

Amy was a gift, not only to her friends and family, but to humanity, having already made an impact on so many lives just a few years into her adulthood. She was smart, funny, loving, adventurous, fun, caring and loyal. She was wise, an achiever, a mentor and motivating to those she came in contact with. She was kind, inspiring and wise beyond her years with a smile that lit up a sun-filled room. S

he was a beautiful person inside and out.
​
Amy was a role model to so many of the campers at her beloved Camp Lohikan in Pennsylvania which she attended since she was seven years old – first as a camper, then a CIT, a junior counselor and a lifeguard.
​
She was told she couldn't attend Florida State University unless she obtained a scholarship and she made it happen and FSU became her home for 4 years.
​
Amy wanted an internship at Ernst & Young with the ultimate goal of a permanent accounting job when she graduated college. She not only got a 10 week internship which was extended to eight months - she got the job and then she got her dream account: Major League Baseball.
​
Sports was a very integral part of Amy's life and her passion for sports was unmatched. She loved the Boston Red Sox, the NY Rangers and, of course, her beloved Florida State University football team.
​
Amy also loved to travel. She spent the last year of her life traveling to many places including Cancun, Italy, Ireland, London and more with both family and friends.
​
Amy lived her life to the fullest and got to experience things that most 23 year olds couldn't dream of. Her memory will live on forever through the ones that knew and loved her.

On the occasion of what would have been Amy's 27th birthday on Jan 12th we would like to update you on the activities of the foundation in Amy's memory.

On April 15th Campus Recreation at Florida State awarded the first Amy Rose Grabina scholarship. One of the criteria was to answer this question: Amy was exuberant in all aspects of life and her ambition for success was matched by few. The joy and passion she brought to a room was contagious to all that she encountered. Please detail how you would embody these characteristics if named the recipient of this scholarship.

Elizabeth Joseph was the recipient, congratulations! Below is a link to the video of the presentation. It is a little difficult to hear so turn up the volume.

As always we are so grateful to all of you that have made these scholarships a reality. A special thank you to Ben and Chris and the campus rec family for keeping Amy's memory alive at FSU!
