The Andrew McMorris Foundation is proud to announce the winners of its 2021 scholarships, grants, and spirit awards.

The Andrew McMorris Foundation Scholarship was created to honor the memory of a very special twelve-year-old boy who was tragically killed by a drunk driver while hiking with his Boy Scout troop in the fall of 2018. We’re excited to share our 2021 Scholarship applications - the deadline to apply is March 30, 2021/

The Andrew McMorris Foundation is proud to announce its 2020 Scholarship Winners.

The Andrew McMorris Foundation would like to congratulate the recipients of the 2020 Andrew McMorris Spirit Awards. Congratulations to Emily Cordano, Cali Krause and Robert Tacke at the Albert G. Prodell Middle School!

On September 30, 2018, Troop 161 of Shoreham and the entire Suffolk County Council scouting family was affected by the tragic crash that took place as this group of boys and leaders were on a Sunday hike.  As a result of this crash, scout Andrew McMorris passed away.

We’re very touched that Mid Island Air Service Flight School at MacArthur Airport in Islip honored Andrew by dedicating their flight simulator room to him. Andrew used this simulator many times last summer while he was participating in their Aerocamp and he learned so much about piloting from using it.

Every year, AMF gives out Andrew McMorris Spirit Awards to two deserving 8th graders at Shoreham-Wading River Middle School. The Andrew McMorris Spirit Award was created to honor SWR 8th grade students who exemplify Andrew’s spirit by helping others without the need or desire for recognition.

Congratulations to the 2019 Shoreham Wading River High School First Andrew McMorris Foundation Scholarship recipients; Natalie Epp and Andrew Liguori.

Suffolk County Assistant District Attorney Brendan Ahern conducted a presentation on “Choices and Consequences,” an educational program on drunk, drugged, and reckless driving to Shoreham-Wading River high school students. Introduced by Suffolk County District Attorney Timothy Sini and student Arianna McMorris, the 90-minute program’s message portrayed the importance of safe driving, good judgement, healthy decision making, and arranging alternate plans for transportation if a person feels like they are in an uncomfortable or unsafe situation.
