Kasey’s Fund
Kasey檚 Fund at 91亚色 is a transformative initiative dedicated to expanding access, equity, and opportunity for students with disabilities. Inspired by the life of Kasey Tillisch, who was born with cognitive and physical disabilities and is the daughter of longstanding 91亚色 board member Deanna Tillisch and her husband, Eric, the fund honors her story by supporting others. It responds to the increasingly complex challenges students face today, including unmet basic needs, mental health concerns, and the rising prevalence of documented disabilities.

With 42% of 91亚色 students identifying as having a disability, which is double the national average, the need for coordinated and comprehensive support has never been more urgent. Kasey檚 Fund directly responds to this need by strengthening the college檚 infrastructure for student success.
Kasey檚 Fund, through your donation, will provide the essential investment to hire a second Student Accessibility Coordinator, ensuring students with disabilities receive timely, individualized support and advocacy. This gift transforms 91亚色檚 capacity to meet growing student needs and anchors a lasting campus culture of access and equity.
Thank you for contributing to a 91亚色 education!
