THE JOY FUND
Her name said it all — Joy Flanders — for joy was certainly felt all around on Saturday, July 25, 2015 as family, friends, co-workers, and students gathered for the inaugural Party by the Pond event at Chilmark Chocolates to raise money for a new scholarship fund created in her name.
Wanting to honor her mother, who died four years ago, Sarah Flanders, Joy’s youngest daughter, sought out the help of the [Martha’s Vineyard Community Foundation] to create a scholarship in her mother’s name. “I just wanted something permanent to continue on my mom’s memory,” she said.
