About The Emily Fund and the Do One Thing Campaign:
Shortly after 19-year old Gettysburg college sophomore, Emily Rachel Silverstein, was violently murdered on April 9, 2009, her family set up The Emily Fund to continue her legacy of hope in action for a better world. The fund provides scholarships, resources and programs like The BetterWorld Kids Clubs and Do One Thing campaign to inspire young people to make a difference in their communities. 

Emily's compassion, passion and creativity touched many lives.  She was an active leader promoting numerous social causes, including peace and conflict resolution, environmental sustainability, animal and human rights, and ending hunger and homelessness. Emily shared deep friendships and accomplished countless amazing things. But there was so much more that she wanted to do to make this world a better place; so many more lives that she would have touched, inspired and empowered to join in the struggle for a more peaceful, just and sustainable world.  The Emily Fund's "Do One Thing" campaign is based on Emily's strong conviction that every act of compassion makes a difference.  Alone we may not be able to change the world, but together we make a world of difference.
