Ty Eschenbaum Foundation

The Ty Eschenbaum Foundation was founded in 2011 to create a sustainable resource for youth cancer survivors and their families. Funds raised are awarded to South Dakota survivors through scholarships to support their ambitions at the post-secondary school of their choice. This fund is the only dedicated source of scholarships specifically for cancer survivors in the state of South Dakota.

Officially organized as part of the $200+ million endowed South Dakota Community Foundation, donations to the Ty Eschenbaum Foundation receive the maximum tax benefits allowed by law.
