United in Hope Scholarship


The John Patrick Flanagan Foundation is honored to financially support The United in Hope Scholarship - an academic scholarship awarded by The Chad A. Jacobs Memorial Foundation to a high school senior who lost a parent to cancer, lives or attends high school in Westport or Fairfield, CT, and is planning on attending an institution of higher learning. Financial need is not a requirement for the scholarship award but is used to determine scholarship amount.

CAJF Board members determine the recipients of the United in Hope Scholarship and award amounts. Since 2013, a total of $68,500.00 has been awarded to 18 very deserving students. Losing a parent to cancer is devastating enough, the financial burden often incurred by this disease and death of a parent can be debilitating. It is the goal that the United in Hope Scholarship will help offset the costs of higher education for students who lost a parent and will give families hope for the future.
