Scott and Mary Lou Reed Tribute fund
Mary Lou
Reed is coming up on her 95th birthday this year and we want to celebrate Mary
Lou and her late husband Scott. The Reed’s have championed and done so
much for our community, region and state. The history of their combined
careers to protect and conserve the environment, advocate for human rights,
support arts and culture, foster educational opportunities and generally create
a strong and vibrant community.
We are
currently spearheading a campaign to raise funds for a Scott and Mary
Lou Reed Tribute. A bench, to be placed at the base of Tubbs Hill,
will be designed and built by artists Allen and Mary Dee Dodge and a
donation in Mary Lou and Scott names to the Greater Coeur d’Alene Community
Foundation Endowment. The bench will symbolize the various
aspects of our beautiful environment that the Reed’s have supported,
cherished, and made possible for all of us to enjoy.
We are
hoping to dedicate it to Mary Lou at the end of April. We
are asking all friends and organizations that have benefited from the
activism of these two extraordinary individuals to please
contribute! Your gift will go through the Greater Coeur d'Alene Community
Foundation, an affiliate of the Idaho Community Foundation, and will be tax
deductible.
