What We Do

At the Peyton Tuthill Foundation, we help children whose lives have been shattered by losing a parent or sibling to homicide.


We do this by providing scholarships and an emotional support network. We help young survivors understand their rights to be notified, to be heard, and to give them a voice in the criminal justice system.


We have a committed board of directors and volunteers across the country investing their time and gifts to give hope and change lives. Young survivors need us to care.

Our Impact

We help young homicide survivors rebuild their lives shattered by violence. Our goal is to award as many scholarships as financially possible to help survivors rebuild their lives and achieve their dreams.


Whether you help through monetary donations, volunteering your time, or spreading our mission through word-of-mouth, thank you. We couldn’t accomplish our goals without the help of supporters like you.


To date, we have awarded over $177,000 in scholarships.


To quote Peyton’s world view, “We should leave the world a better place.”
