Our story
At Brennan Park, we proudly uphold the legacy of Shirley Bryant, a visionary and compassionate leader who dedicated her life to helping others. This scholarship memorial fund is established to honor Shirley's remarkable contributions and to empower Michigan high school and undergraduate students pursuing science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) programs in college.
About Shirley Bryant:
Shirley’s professional journey began with General Motors in Flint, Michigan, before pivoting to the housing industry to focus on real estate and community planning. In the 26 years that followed, she made indelible marks at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, serving in Chicago and Philadelphia, before retiring in Los Angeles. Shirley was not just a professional, but a mentor, advocate, and inspiration to those she supported.
Passion for Arts, Innovation, and Youth Empowerment:
Shirley Bryant's life was defined by a profound passion for the arts, innovation, and a commitment to nurturing the potential of young minds. She understood the transformative power of creativity and entrepreneurship, especially among the youth. Through her guidance, she instilled in others the importance of doing their best and persevering in the pursuit of their dreams.
