The Pasta Rose Scholarship is a yearly scholarship awarded to Brooklyn high school students who have lost a parent to cancer.

In 2018, Allison, the owner of Pasta Louise, lost her sister, Lenore, to cancer. When she was 37 she was diagnosed with stage 4 bladder cancer, and although the doctors thought she had a few weeks to live, she fought it for six years. She left behind two young daughters, Jasmine Rose and Scarlet Rose.

Lenore was a lawyer and worked for the Administration for Children's Services in Queens, where she fought tirelessly for the rights of children. She felt everything deeply, and had a way of making everyone she met feel like the most special person in the room.

Having the strength and resilience to go on after losing a parent at a young age is no easy task. This scholarship will help those kids who have lost so much... help them go to college, help them succeed, help them feel just a little bit better.

Every year we raise about $15,000 to award to these incredible students. With your help, this will be our best year yet. Bid on our awesome prizes, or make a donation, big or small. Take a second to read about our past winners... their stories will amaze you!

Thank you for being part of our cause, and good luck bidding!
