Honoring Scott's Legacy To promote suicide prevention
and mental health awareness

The Scott Sipple Foundation Story

After the tragic loss of Scott Sipple a group of his friends started looking for a way to honor his legacy of giving, unselfishness, compassion, community involvement, patriotism and sporting spirit. We also wanted to raise awareness around mental health, and the thing that took him from us, suicide. Thus the Scott Sipple Foundation was created!

The Scott Sipple foundation raises money through various events which is then distributed throughout our community. This money goes to organizations that promote education and the conversation around mental health and suicide prevention. In addition we also financially support groups that help veterans, youth sports, Scott's love of the outdoors and many other things that help promote healthy communities.

Our goal was to make something positive come from Scott's death. Our hope is that through our efforts we can make resources available for anyone in crisis, and also better the communities in and around central Pennsylvania.

The money that the Scott Sipple Foundation provided allowed for LSF to host a veteran retreat and help several former military members begin their recovery process. We cannot thank SSF enough for their generous donation! [Read full testimonial]
