Summer Richards Memorial Scholarship
Savvy Coders wishes to honor the memory of Summer Richards by announcing the Summer Richards Memorial Scholarship.
Summer Mercedes Richards was born on November 18, 1997 in Belleville, Illinois. After graduating, Summer worked for T-Mobile, where she developed a passion for technology, leading her to seek opportunities to grow within the field. In October 2018 Summer attended the Full Stack cohort, which landed her an opportunity at Panera Bread Co. In addition, Summer was also an entrepreneur with two businesses, Doctor IOS and Summer Richards Photography.
The Summer Richards Memorial scholarship exists to honor her life, and to encourage those who share her passion for technology, to continue in their studies in their pending careers. Summer leaves behind a legacy of promoting diversity and putting others’ needs before her own. Recognized for her abilities to bring about the best in others, Summer’s talents to help others less fortunate will be memorialized through the recipient of this scholarship.
