Westport and Beyond - The Erika Hall Memorial Fund
The Erika Hall Memorial Fund was established by family and friends in 2014 to honor the memory of their late daughter,
granddaughter, sister, and friend Erika Hall.
Erika was a sophomore at Westport High School who died in a car accident while out with friends late April 2014. Erika was involved and interested in many things (dance, music, art, field hockey, track, international exchange, beach life, a top student at school, employed at several area locations, etc.) yet it was not so much her activities that made her a standout but her relationships. Friends. Family. Employers. Teachers. Parents. Coaches. The 2-year-olds in her Saturday morning dance class. The young ladies she babysat. International teens here for a glimpse of life in the USA.
Erika had a way of putting a smile on your face and making you feel welcome. Whole. Loved. Her zest for life was contagious and insatiable, and she definitely wanted us all to be a part of it. It is for these reasons, and many more, that the family and friends of Erika Hall strove to create this fund to provide scholarships and grants to further that sense of adventure in fellow students and to give back to a community and student body that had given so much to them during those trying days.
