The Dr. Keith W. Young Memorial Historic Preservation Fund was created to honor the life of this well-known Aurora dentist.

Dr. Young (1932-2004) was a graduate of the Northwestern University Dental School. He practiced in Aurora for nearly fifty years and also was a faculty member at the Loyola School of Dentistry.

He served as president of the Fox Valley Dental Society and maintained memberships with the Chicago and Illinois State Dental Societies, the American Dental Association, the Royal Society of Health and the Walter Reed Society.

In addition, the Association for Individual Development recognized him for his extraordinary assistance to their organization.

An avid outdoorsman, he traveled to all seven continents of the world.

Dr. Young and his wife Barbara (1934-2012) had four children – Dr. Kimberley Young, Tracy Newman, Skeffington Young and Betsy Lutch.

Their daughter, Dr. Kimberley Young, practices dentistry in the office she had shared with her father.

…you can always start small, even $25 can make a difference. Remember we can’t take our money with us. Even if it’s just your gift of time. Volunteer and get involved.

A community foundation is a donor-driven organization that helps donors custom-design funds that reflect their charitable interests. Through the years, grants from these funds have made a significant impact on our local communities.

We chose the Community Foundation because of its reputation. It’s well known, established and we can trust them to do the job for us.

Richard and Susan Schindel Scholarship Funds

There’s no question in my mind that the scholarship I received opened up possibilities.

Marianne Renner

Past Scholarship Recipient & Current Leadership Coach

As a first-generation college student from a low-income family, I was worried about how I was going to pay for books and supplies. This scholarship will allow me to focus more on my studies instead of worrying about how to afford college. I am working to not only create opportunities for myself but to motivate future generations. Thank you so much for helping me along this journey!
