Supporting CDH: Legacy of Chris Dell '07 Lives On
February 14, 2022
An endowment is a way of making a perpetual impact. When donors establish an endowment at CDH, we steward their gift to ensure it will grow and impact Raiders for years to come.
After Chris Dell '07 passed away in November 2020, his father Richard Dell established the Christopher A. Dell '07 Memorial Scholarship in his memory. The scholarship helps an incoming ninth-grader afford a CDH education.
Chris was an AP student at CDH, a Boy Scout, and an athlete. He volunteered at Union Gospel Mission and the Wilder Child Guidance Clinic. He earned a bachelor's in kinesiology from the University of Wisconsin - Madison and worked at Regions Hospital in the surgical care department.
Richard established the endowment to ensure that Chris's legacy will live on and future students will have the opportunity to experience the same CDH education that Chris loved.
