Helping kids grow through learning.
Sue’s Sprouts is a family fund in memory of our mom, Sue Kelly. We support the education of elementary school children in need across the Tampa Bay area.
“The more the merrier.”
Sue’s motto, for parties and for people
Suzan “Sue” Babyak Kelly was a loving wife, sister, mother, grandmother and friend to all. Her boundless energy, compassion, courage and generosity defined her, and she was the ultimate mentor and cheerleader for her children. She loved helping anyone in need, whether she knew them for five minutes or 50 years.
Through her volunteer work in her children’s schools, her church and her community, Sue was a beacon of light for others. She passed far too soon on June 3, 2025, and this fund carries that work forward for kids across Tampa Bay.
