Our Mission
To honor the memory of Drew Knutson by awarding scholarships to graduating seniors within the Stafford County community who embody the legacy of Drew – excelling in academia, athletics, leadership, and community service.
Our History
Drew Knutson was a standout member of Stafford Soccer. Not only excelling on the soccer field, Drew was a standout in the classroom, was a member of the middle school band, and a tremendous leader and friend among his peers. He was active within in the community - creating a fundraiser to help a young man diagnosed with a brain tumor and heading a soccer gear drive to benefit the community of Rockaway Beach, NY after Hurricane Sandy. He truly embodied the adage "actions speak louder than words."
Drew tragically passed away on February 12, 2013 at the age of 12. He is now survived by his parents, Erin and Keith, and younger brother and sister, Brandon and Alex. Drew was an amazing child and now we carry on his legacy by awarding graduating seniors who share these same qualities.
