MAKE A Difference

In Honor of Scott Michaud and Noah Snyder

Scott Michaud (19) and Noah Snyder (20) were beloved student-athletes on the Marquette University men’s lacrosse team whose lives were tragically cut short. Though their time here was far too brief, the impact they made was profound. Their leadership, compassion, work ethic, and unwavering commitment to excellence left an imprint on teammates, friends, family, and all who had the privilege of knowing them.
Scott and Noah lived with purpose, passion, and integrity. They pursued their education and their sport with determination and heart, inspiring others to do the same.
In honoring their lives and legacy, this foundation is committed to walking alongside students as they pursue their education, their dreams, and their calling — carrying forward the same spirit, resilience, and belief that defined Scott and Noah each day.
