In 2010, the Scott Coopersmith Stroke Awareness Foundation (SCSAF) was founded with the mission to connect with those affected by stroke and health care professionals.

The Scott Coopersmith Stroke Awareness Foundation was created in honor and memory of Scott Cory Coopersmith.  Scott was born on November 11, 1976, graduated from Piper High School and worked for SunTrust while residing in Oviedo, FL with his wife and son.  Sadly, on July 15, 2009, Scott suffered a massive ischemic stroke of the brain stem and despite many surgeries, passed away on July 22, 2009 with his family at his bedside.

Scott was best known for his wit, humor and personality and could make anyone laugh. He was an amazing son, brother, and uncle, a devoted husband, and a loving father. He was a kind man, and although very young, accomplished more than most people ever wish to do. In his 32 years, Scott touched many lives and he will never be forgotten.
