The Sandra M. (Miller) Glazier Memorial Scholarship was established in memory of Sandy Glazier, the co-founder of the Cancer Concern Center of Point Pleasant. She was elected to represent women battling cancer by the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and was featured in the 2001 My Hope Calendar. Her leadership efforts were recognized in May 2000 when she was awarded the Russ Berrie Prize for Making a Difference. A vibrant individual with a zest for life, and an inspiration to all, Sandy passed away on Oct. 22, 2001 after seven years of battling metastatic breast cancer.
Her family and friends established the scholarship fund to fulfill one of her life-long wishes to provide financial assistance for college study to students whose parents have been stricken by cancer, or who have been afflicted themselves.
The scholarship is a tribute to Sandy’s life and interests and a reminder not only of her battle against a terrible disease, but also her successes as a mother, wife and breast cancer advocate.
Beginning in 2026, scholarships were awarded to students attending Glazier’s alma mater, Pascack Hills High School.
