Healing Futures Scholarship Fund

Representation saves lives. Your gift today can help close the healthcare gap for tomorrow. I’m launching The Healing Futures Scholarship because I believe the future of healthcare must be both culturally informed and community‑rooted. With a B.S. in Nutrition Science and over 20 years in health and wellness, I’ve seen firsthand how representation changes outcomes. African Americans make up 13% of the U.S. population but only 5% of practicing physicians. This gap impacts trust, access, and the quality of care in profound ways. My goal is to award at least one $1,000 scholarship each year, with the hope of expanding the fund over time. Your support will help train the next generation of culturally aware healers—leaders who will challenge bias, dismantle stereotypes, and deliver care rooted in empathy, equity, and cultural specificity. This isn’t just about funding education. It’s about shaping a healthcare system where every patient is seen, heard, and cared for with dignity.
