In Loving Memory of Clayton Matthews
In June of 2022, we lost Clayton to hemorrhagic stroke. We, his family and friends, were stunned and heartbroken by the sudden occurrence, and vowed to ensure his that his legacy continued to the next generation.
​
While we miss and think about Clayton everyday, we saw the lasting impact he had on the community and sought to continue his legacy. Clayton would constantly care for those in his circle, making sure the students he worked with were always taken care of. Friends and strangers alike never went without whenever they were in need; he was truly everyone's best friend. He always shared the resources he had access to selflessly. In January of 2023, we founded this foundation in order to give back to the community just as Clayton did.
​
