Who we are

The Emily Yish Remembrance Foundation was created to honor Emily’s life by making a lasting impact in the lives of others. We award annual scholarships to graduating Oxford High School seniors and support epilepsy awareness and research through charitable donations—all in memory of a daughter, sister, and friend who inspired everyone she met.
