The Adrienne Shelly Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to the memory of Writer/Director/Actor Adrienne Shelly, has been founded by her husband, Andy Ostroy. Plans for the Foundation include a Womens’ Filmmaking Scholarship Fund, with a particular emphasis on awarding film school scholarships and helping women make the transition from acting to directing. “I know what Adrienne would want most would be to help women get a chance to pursue their dream,” Ostroy said when he announced the Foundation.

Contributions can be sent to The Adrienne Shelly Foundation, 16 West 22nd Street, 11th Floor, New York, NY 10010. Information about the Foundation, its mission, and an online donation feature can be found at www.adrienneshellyfoundation.org
