Grayson Kennedy Trade Scholarship

Grayson Kennedy Trade Scholarship

Grayson Kennedy was only 15 when he tragically passed away in December 2021. Grayson was a vibrant, funny, caring kid. He loved working on his lathe, woodworking, tinkering with his quad and any other machine he could get his hands on and he was also learning to do some welding. He even entertained the possibility of being a medical technician! Grayson was the kind of kid who included others, helped everyone he interacted with and was just a selfless, giving guy.

Grayson Kennedy Memorial Fund (GKMF.org) was created in 2022. Offering a helping hand was second nature to Grayson; so we honor him when we give in his name. Our intention is that this scholarship also helps a young adult start their professional life. This scholarship is only available for a Camas student going into some kind of trade school or skilled trades program.
