Michael J. Inglesby Memorial Scholarship Fund

Donation protected
On Friday September 13th, 2019, the world lost one of its brightest lights when Michael J. Inglesby died unexpectedly in his home in Charlotte, North Carolina. At just 26, Michael was taken too soon.  He had accomplished so much in such a short period of time. He was humble, entrepreneurial, ambitious, intelligent, outgoing, funny, and kindhearted.  Michael was also a great friend. He was always there for people, and he would give back meaningfully to anyone in need. He was a hard worker who loved and cared for others and was a selfless person who would do anything to help someone in both his personal and professional life.

Michael had a passion for, and commitment to mentoring young entrepreneurs like himself. To honor his commitment to helping others and continue his legacy, The Michael J. Inglesby Memorial Scholarship Fund has been established.  It is our hope that through his Scholarship Fund, Michael can help future entrepreneurs realize their dreams.

Michael spent his childhood in Great Falls, Virginia and graduated from the University of South Carolina in 2015.  He received a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration, majoring in Entrepreneurship Management and Insurance and Risk management with a minor in Sports & Entertainment Management.

Michael was a world traveler, avid music lover and life enthusiast. He spent his off time with his siblings, Laura, Katie, and Johnny traveling, and seeing live music. He loved spending time with his family, his nephews and his friends. 

Michael touched many, many lives.  Here are just a few things being said about Michael as we all mourn his passing:

“Michael always did his best to make a positive impact on the ones around him each day of his life” 

 “Michael had a genuine smile, warm greeting, and positive energy that stuck with me and lit-up every room”

“Michael had a beautiful heart’

 “There’s not a person you encountered that you didn’t make smile. Your presence was felt wherever you went”

“Michael was truly an incredible person loved by so many”

 “You were never afraid of anything”

 “Michael. You are an absolute gem of a human being”

 “You touched so many moments of my life”

“There was never a time that you would be greeted by him without seeing his big beautiful smile”

“You lit up the room in more ways than one”

 “If there was an event going on, it was always 100% better when you showed up”

“You were always an old soul wise beyond your years. Your potential was limitless”

 “You will live on through every life you touched, and I will always keep the memories of you close”

 “His ability to lift people up, show love, spread love, inspire joy and bring people together was unmatched”

“The world is a brighter place because of you and your positive influence on us all”

“I was truly blessed with every interaction we've ever had and I look forward to the opportunity to carry and share your kindness and spirit to the world”

“Thanks for always dreaming big and living life with so much love for your friends and family”

Michael was a champion to us all, a loyal friend, and dedicated family member.  Although Michael is no longer with us, he would have wanted us to continue his efforts to make the world a better place and give others the opportunity to do the same.

Please join us as we honor Michael and continue his legacy by donating generously to his Scholarship Fund.
