The Anne Salway Dolan Memorial Scholarship is a nonprofit organization established to honor Anne’s connection to Cranford, New Jersey, and her dedication to local young people and community life. Its work focuses on supporting high school athletes and keeping Anne’s generous spirit alive through scholarships and youth activities.

The organization awards annual $1,000 scholarships to Cranford High School seniors, of any gender, who have played on the school’s swimming or field hockey team for three to four years. Applicants must provide a recommendation from their coach, identify their intended college major, and submit a 500- to 1,000-word essay on what “team” means to them. By May 2025, the fund had awarded 19 scholarships totaling $23,000.

It also supports an annual field hockey clinic for Cranford children in grades 3–5, held from January through March in Anne’s name. Since the clinic began in 2022, the fund has contributed more than $1,157 to its support. Donations help sustain the scholarship fund, which is organized as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
