The Charlotte Helen Bacon Selah Scholarship is a scholarship that will help a bereaved couple that is grieving a death of a child. The couple will attend the annual Selah Retreat offered through the MISS Foundation. Selah translates: Pause, Reflect – Fully Inhabited Grief.

They are honored to help another family discover the MISS Foundation and support this family’s grief journey as they honor and remember their beloved child.
