A GoFundMe has been started to support the effort to finance a new scoreboard at Quioccasin Middle school’s athletic field that will display the name of Lucia Bremer.
The 12-year-old Quioccasin Middle School student was shot and killed March 26 in a Far West End neighborhood. The shooting suspect, a 14-year-old boy, is facing six charges.
The Henrico School Board voted on April 23 to rename the Quioccasin Middle school athletic field the Lucia Bremer Memorial Field in her honor.
The existing scoreboard cannot be retrofitted to include the new name of the field, according to the GoFundMe page, so donations are being accepted to replace it. The goal is set at $50,000. Over $17,000 had been raised as of Friday afternoon.
“The new scoreboard at the Lucia Bremer Memorial Field will carry her name, but more importantly it will be a reminder to all who visit to live life to the fullest, be kind, encourage others and be a role model- just as Lucia did,” the page reads.
Any donations raised over the amount needed to cover the scoreboard will be donated to the Lucia Whalen Bremer Memorial Scholarship Fund.
