The Brooks Martin Memorial Scholarship was established to honor my brother’s memory by supporting students who have faced profound loss. When Brooks passed away, I was a college student living in a world that suddenly felt unrecognizable, and I know the strength it takes to keep going when everything feels impossible. My mission is to offer not only financial assistance, but also a reminder that resilience is an act of love: a way of honoring those we’ve lost by continuing to live fully, bravely, and with purpose. This scholarship celebrates Brooks’s legacy by uplifting students who, like I once did, are learning to navigate grief while building their futures.
