Main

The Eve Eskin Brown Foundation is a not for profit organization that has been created to help victims of domestic abuse break the chains of domestic violence. Eve Eskin Brown disappeared on July 10, 1999 after leaving her home in Plainview, New York to visit a friend. Although first classified as a missing person case, Nassau County Police soon treated it as a probable homicide. Sixteen months later, Eve's remains were found along side the Belt Parkway in Brooklyn, New York. The case remains unsolved and under investigation by the 75th Precinct Detective Squad in Brooklyn, New York (718-827-3557).

Eve was a marriage and family counselor who dedicated her life to helping others. A caring and most giving person, Eve founded and directed a counseling center for individuals and groups. Her organization, The Support Center, specialized in providing assistance for battered women and children. Reaching out to the community, Eve often provided pro bono work for PTA and other child related groups. Her passion to help others in need has inspired others to create this foundation so that her work and ideals may continue.

The initial project of the Eve Eskin Brown Foundation will be to award scholarships to survivors of domestic violence. These scholarships will be awarded to individuals who will use the funds toward an educational program that will help them to achieve career goals. The Foundation, in cooperation with the Nassau County Coalition Against Domestic Violence, will begin awarding scholarships to deserving applicants by the end of the calendar year 2001. Other short term goals of the Foundation include sponsoring educational programs, participating in public awareness programs to combat domestic violence and to act as an advocate for abused children. The long term goal of the Foundation is to create a Sanctuary House, a safe home for battered and abused women and children
