Amy Bennett, a 23-year-old Anthem native, died recently in a tragic bicycling accident in Wyoming. The Amy Bennett Foundation is a commemorative and fundraising website for Amy’s passion for the arts. A non-profit organization in this name is in the process of being founded. It’s immediate aim is to recoup some of the medical costs from her critical care in trauma centers. The part not covered by insurance may reach 100K. The foundation also hopes to go beyond that to create a scholarship fund that shall be used to enrich the lives of youth and college performers at Starlight, where Amy got her start, at University of Northern Colorado’s Musical Theater Program, and many other institutions. Donations may be made online or to a special fund at MidFirst Bank. For more information, please see amybennettfoundation.com.
