COACH CHRIS EATON MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP

After Chris died, his family decided to do something to carry on, as best they could, Chris’s energetic and passionate support for young people, especially student athletes. With the support and encouragement of many, they established the Chris Eaton Foundation and the Scholarship in November 2023.

Beginning around the first of the year, senior class student-athletes in any varsity school-sponsored sport at an Albuquerque high school may apply for the Scholarship award to be used for college or vocational school. Click here for the requirements, criteria, and the application form for the Scholarship.

Chris’s family and close friends contributed money to start the Scholarship fund. But charitable contributions are needed to continue to build it into an endowment that will provide scholarships for years to come.

The Chris Eaton Foundation is a tax-exempt public charity under the Internal Revenue Service Code. Initially, the Foundation partnered with the APS Education Foundation, but now donations for the Coach Chris Eaton Memorial Scholarship should be made directly to the Chris Eaton Foundation.

In honor & loving memory of coach chris eaton
