Mrs. Ifill was a teacher for 33 years. Education was very important to her, and her dream was to establish a scholarship fund to benefit Rainbow Girls in Maine. Mrs. Ifill began her service in Rainbow as a Mother Advisor of South Portland and Hampden Rainbow Assemblies. She then served the Grant Assembly of Maine, International Order of the Rainbow for Girls as State Dean of the Grand Cross of Color for 19 years. At her retirement, she was given the title of State Dean Emeritus. The Ella R. Ifill Fund provides scholarship support to eligible members of the International Order of the Rainbow Girls in Maine to pursue post-secondary education.
