Who Can Apply:
- The Sewing Seeds: Lena B. Davis Memorial Scholarship is established in memory of my mother, Lena B. Davis—a gifted seamstress who stitched more than fabric. She sewed love, encouragement, and unwavering belief into my life, embodying the power of sewing into others not just through grand gestures, but in everyday moments of kindness, laughter, care, and faith.
- Rooted in the belief that every action—no matter how small—can shape the future, the Sewing Seeds scholarship honors students who embody that same spirit of intentionality. Whether through mentorship, service, or quiet acts of encouragement, we aim to support those who strive to make a difference in their communities and in the lives of others.
- By investing in students from often overlooked or underserved communities, this scholarship continues my mother’s legacy of sewing seeds of hope—believing that what we stitch into others today can grow into something far greater than we ever imagine.
- Any underrepresented minority high school or four-year undergraduate student who has non-profit or volunteering experience and at least a 3.0 GPA may apply for this scholarship.
