On the day I was born, no one knew how much this baby was about to go through. My mother picked out my name. Zion. In Christianity terms, Zion is the city of Jerusalem also known as the “kingdom of heaven”, ”holy place”, & ”highest point”. I was born exactly one month early, my original birthday was supposed to be July eighth and I also had to have surgery as soon as I was born. My intestines were twisted so they had to transfer me to the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and untwist them. To this day, I have a unique scar on my stomach. On top of that, since I was born early I had to stay in the NICU until my real due date. My mother was eighteen, she was still pretty young and didn’t finish high school so there wasn't much she could do to help herself and her child. My mom reached out for help from my dad’s family because she didn't have “a family” on her side. My maternal grandmother found out about my mom living with my dad’s family and she filed custody for me. The day of court the judge ruled that I was gonna live with my maternal grandmom. While living with my mom’s mom I was abusive just like my mom. I would get hit with objects, verbally insult me, and purposely not feed me. When I was eight years old the Department of Family Services had enough evidence against my maternal grandmother and they gave me back to my mother. Unfortunately, things started to take a turn. We started falling behind. . I made sure my siblings ate every night and did their homework. Soon the landlord had kicked us out. We stayed at was my mother’s friend's and his father’s house. Countless tardies, going to school in dirty clothes, hair wasn’t done, it was a lot. Department of Family Services found that my mom didn't have a stable home for my siblings and I. My mom was forced to either give her children up to the state of New Jersey or find us a home. My mom placed me and my brother with my paternal grandmom while my sister stayed with her. While living with my paternal grandmother my maternal grandmother filed for visiting rights a few months later. When it was visiting day it was the same thing as before. She even called me fat and told me to lose weight. Going into 2020 it wasn't fun. I started starving myself to lose weight and my paternal grandmom started noticing. She filed to take away my maternal grandmother’s rights.Going into COVID, I couldn't fit my clothes anymore. I also struggled with my depression and thought about how life would be better if I wasn't here. Unfortunately, I acted on those thoughts. I was put in the mental hospital for about two months. I was put into an eating disorder program where they would help me make good choices on food. Going into freshman year everything became worse. I started falling asleep in all my classes. I pushed through it though as much as I could. As months went by I lost my great grandmother, Myrtle. She helped me throughout my whole life by fighting and never giving up on the court system. She passed away from covid and I was devastated for months. I couldn't even delete our last messages together when she asked me about my graduation from eighth grade. I know she’ll be watching down on me once I walk on this high school stage.

My Name is Zion Mari Pyner and specifically, the money is needed for the cost of my college education and tuition as soon as I graduate from high school in June 2025. The money will go towards my associate's degree in criminal justice as well as my college credits for my school Burlington County Institute of Technology- Medford Campus for the major in criminal justice/law and public safety. My dream is to become a judge who works in a family court and works with family law. My dream came what it came to be because I grew up as a child involved with the family court. I am a child of the court system. Since childhood, I have been back and forth to court due to guardianship proceedings between my maternal grandmother, mother, and sometimes my paternal grandmother. I was inspired to become a judge as I saw how the legal system works, and how it can help to bring justice and peace to families. I want to be part of a system that can make a difference in the lives of struggling families. I want to be an advocate for the oppressed and the voiceless. There were times when I was homeless as well. Growing up in the court system has given me a unique perspective on the complexity of family law. I have seen firsthand the effects that family law has on individuals, both positive and negative. This has inspired me to use my experience to help others going through similar circumstances and to make a positive difference in their lives. Ultimately, I'd like to become a judge. This will help children in the court system who are just like me with adoption, child protection, etc. to prevent them from suffering through what I did. I’ve always dreamed of becoming a judge since I was young. When I was in fifth grade I did this black history month project. I researched a judge and learned about how the court system works. After that, I knew that becoming a judge was the best fit for me. I'm determined to make this dream a reality and use my position to make a difference in the lives of children. I had to pick a person and research them. I decided to pick a random person and chose Thurgood Marshall. Ever since then becoming a lawyer/judge has always been my passion in life. If I win this scholarship, it will officially make my childhood dream come true. As someone who has been in the court system because of my childhood, I have a lot of experience with judges, and cases involving children in some type of way. The judges there failed me multiple times, putting me in situations that weren't good for me. I want to become a judge to help children involved in foster care, adoption, child protective services, and other similar programs involving children so I can be that judge who does not fail the children in the court system.

Access to education is very significant. Especially for students who want the opportunity to learn as much as possible. As they can. College is incredibly meaningful and critical to me because it is the first way for me to achieve my goals in life and my dream job. As a sophomore in high school, every day I look at all the opportunities available to achieve my goals. I am currently taking college credit courses in criminal justice. I am a child of the court system. Since childhood, I have been back and forth to court due to guardianship proceedings between my maternal grandmother, mother, and sometimes my paternal grandmother. There were times when I was homeless as well. Ultimately, I'd like to become a judge. This will help children in the court system who are just like me with adoption, child protection, foster care, etc., to prevent them from suffering through what I did.

Ever since then becoming a lawyer/judge has always been my passion in life. If I win this scholarship, it will officially make my childhood dream come true. College is also important to me because it’s an opportunity to grow and identify your strengths and weaknesses in education. Once those fourteen through fifteen years of school are done, college is the part where you learn about yourself. Learn to be responsible, and learn how to do things on your own without help or someone by your side all the time. Some people around the world do not have access to education. It’s not fair at all. Everyone should have the opportunity to learn. The board of education in New Jersey may be the bare minimum but I am very grateful for having an opportunity for education rather than none at all. College can teach you so many lessons. Education is precious. It’s the key to life. Without education, you wouldn’t be able to succeed in life. I believe college is essential to me because I breathe the same air as everyone else in the world. It should be relevant and necessary for everyone else as well.

Growing up in the city of Camden, New Jersey I was a child of Child Protection and Permanency. I was always back and forth in the Camden County Hall of Justice with my maternal grandmother and my mother. Things were rough as a child. Once I was able to live with my mother, I experienced homelessness with my brother and sister. Not once but multiple times each year. One day in the fourth grade, a research project where my dream first formed. The project was during Black History Month, the year of 2016. I was nine years old. My teacher gave each person in class a person to research and my person was Thurgood Marshall. Thurgood Marshall was an American civil rights lawyer and later became a judge who served as an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. He was the first African-American justice on the Supreme Court. Researching about this gentleman and finding out he had some similarities with being in the Court system made me think. Maybe if I become involved in the court system I could help people like Marshall did. Therefore, I did. My dream was to help children in the court system who were just like me. After my dream was finalized, next was to start planning out my action steps to achieve my dream. Firstly, as the years went by in my elementary and middle school years I helped my paternal grandmother with her daycare. Her daycare is called “Tiny Fingers Tiny Toes Academy” and has children from all types of backgrounds. Some children were in foster care, and some were in Child Protection Service and Permanency just like me. As a young girl, I was determined to give them all the love they deserved because I knew how it felt to be abandoned. Helping children was my number one goal in achieving my dream. Once I finished middle school, I applied to go to Burlington County Institute of Technology in Medford, New Jersey. I was accepted and later had to finish the process of getting into my major. My last exploratory course was Criminal Justice and that was the shop I wanted to get into for sure. After sleepless nights of studying and keeping up with the work, I made it into Criminal Justice with a 100 percent. I am still in Criminal Justice to this day and the only African American female in the graduating class of 2025.

"Just what makes that little old ant think he'll move that rubber tree plant". High Hopes by Frank Sinatra was the song my great-grandmother sang to me when I couldn't believe in myself. As a seven-year-old girl, being in the court system was confusing, and hard to figure out what was going on. The court system failed me every time. It was custody rights with my maternal grandmother and mother. Every year it was them arguing about visitation rights and who I should live with. I was scared and alone. A little girl stuck in the middle. Dealing with this since her birth. The lawyers who were there supported me through my journey. Still, the court system failed me. Multiple pieces of evidence showed that I wasn't safe but it wasn't enough proof. Something needed to be done sooner or later. Growing up in the city of Camden, there was always violence. Innocent bystanders being shot and killed, children having to be forced to live with parents who couldn't take care of them, any situation you name it. In the fourth grade, around Black History Month I should say. The teacher assigned us a project that changed my life moving forward. The project was about picking an African-American who changed the world today. My person was Thurgood Marshall. Thurgood Marshall was a civil rights lawyer and the first African-American jurist who served as an Associate on the Supreme Court. As a child who had multiple experiences in the court system hearing about this gentleman made me interested in him. Going back and forth to the courthouse made me realize that African Americans weren't represented enough in the criminal justice career path. After reading and researching about Marshall my interest in him started to grow. Freshman year of high school, I could see my future ahead of me. Putting in endless amounts of effort, and sleepless nights I made it into the major I wanted since elementary school. Criminal Justice. I made it into the major with a one hundred, the highest grade of all exploratories. I was the only African American female who made it into the major for the class of 2025. Today I am the only African American female in my class. As the years went by, I earned multiple certifications to go with my major. I am in the Honor Guard for the Criminal Justice major as well. Currently, I am also working towards my Associate's Degree with earning college credits for criminal justice. My future goal is to become a Judge who practices Family Law. I know I would have to become a lawyer first to become a judge. I would also need to pass the LSAT and complete Law school to become a lawyer. This scholarship could help me go above and beyond with my future goals. With this scholarship, I could use the money to pay for my books and anything else that needs to be paid for school. It could also help me with any financial problems within my years of college experience. If I were to be awarded this scholarship I could achieve my dreams. I could achieve my dreams of becoming a Judge and helping children who went through the same experiences and situations as me. Helping children in the adoption, foster care, and child protective services facilities. Showing children that someone cares about them and they are willing to save their lives. This scholarship could truly be a blessing to me. I would love to pursue my future goals in the criminal justice major.

Many people say that criminology and forensic science a hard majors to get in, especially in my school. Today I am an example of one of the many people, an African American female specifically who made it into the program. My name is Zion Pyner. I am a junior in high school at Burlington County Insitute of Technology in Medford, New Jersey. I first went into the criminal justice/law and public safety program in 2021 which was my freshman year. I made it into my school's program with a one hundred in my exploratory. As of my graduation year of 2025, I still am the only African American female in my class. Growing up in Camden, made me realize crime was a huge influence. From being confused about whether those were gunshots or fireworks on the Fourth of July to drug dealers on the corner of my street. I was born and raised in Camden where Child Protective Services failed me multiple times and failed to help me out of my situation. Situations such as being abused physically and mentally, purposely not being fed, having to stand up for my younger siblings, and being in and out of other people's homes. I am passionate about criminology because I want to help other children who went through the same thing I went through as a child. I want to make sure children have a home where they don't have to worry about if they're gonna eat tonight. Where children don't have to worry if children in their class are going to be in front of them for not having their hair done and having clean clothes. Where CHILDREN don't have to worry about being given to the state. I'm also passionate about criminology based on my adventures at the Camden County Hall of Justice. Since I was a child who lived with her maternal grandmother I was also back and forth to the courthouse with my grandmother and mother. I remember the day that my mother received her rights back from the court. I was endlessly grateful for the judge and lawyers that day. Seeing how the judges and lawyers fight for me and putting all their effort into their jobs made me interested every time I came back to the courthouse. This is why today I want to become a judge who practices family law and helps children in categories such as fostering, adoption, and child protective services (DCC&P). A career in this field excites me because I am doing God's work. Saving children who are in situations where they have to worry about whether they're going to a house tonight or if they are going to sleep outside. Situations where people abuse their children and put them in a predicament where the child isn't safe. Situations were seeing the fear in that child's eyes in the courthouse from their parents. A career, such as a judge excites me because I would help children where they went through things I was going through as a child and see the joy in their eyes once I make the better decision for them. This field also excites me because I love helping people and working with children in general. I've worked with children in child services and children who were in foster care at my grandmother's daycare. A position in this field has been my dream since the fourth grade. Ever since I made a research project on the first African American judge, Thurgood Marshall he made me realize that based on what he did I could also help people in need.

Hello there :) My name is Zion Mari Pyner. I am sixteen and a high school junior at Burlington County Insitute of Technology the Medford Campus. I was a cheerleader at Access Cheer (now called Stingrays) in New Jersey and a dancer (ballet, tap, jazz, musical theatre, and modern), and softball player starting from the age of eleven. My hometown is Camden, New Jersey and I now live in Mount Laurel. I love arts and crafts, playing the keyboard (piano), dancing, singing, reading, painting, drawing, and writing. When it comes to my family dynamic I have a very substantial emotional support system. My paternal grandmother my paternal aunt, and my mother have been my biggest supporters since I came into the world. They took me in for custody rights when I was only nine years old. My mother was experiencing financial problems and had to choose between finding someone to take care of my siblings and me or giving us up to the Division of Child Protection and Permanency. It was tough being separated from my mother but I was allowed to see her anytime. To this day my mother and I STILL have the strongest mother-daughter bond even as much as we both went through. The school I go to as previously said, is Burlington County Insitute of Technology the Medford Campus. I major in criminal justice/law and public safety. It's been my dream career since I was only nine years old. Before I was accepted into the Criminal Justice program I was in an eighth-grade elective called Crime Scene Investigation. This class prepared me for what I was going to learn about when I do go to High School. I'm also in the Honor Guard for my Law and Public Safety major. I played softball and did some cheerleading for my high school as well. I ran for the class of 25 presidency my freshman year and participated in clubs and activities like Good Vibes Ambassador, Black Student Union, and Gay Straight Alliance. My future plan is to provide my hometown, Camden with at least 70% of homeless people with homes. My other big dream is to become a judge who helps children in the family court. For example adoption, foster care, divorce, etc. This has been my big dream since I was only 9 years old when I did research on Thurgood Marshall who was the first African American Judge. Since I come from the background of going through family court and custody rights I am very familiar with the family court system. I want to help children who went through the same thing as me when I was younger.

I have decided to pursue an education in criminal justice because I feel like the criminal justice community needs more workers, especially with the situations they've been put through in these recent years. I am also a child of the family court system so being involved with judges, child protective services, and others in the criminal justice made me what to be a part of the criminal justice community. Since childhood, I have been back and forth to court due to guardianship proceedings between my maternal grandmother, mother, and sometimes my paternal grandmother. There were times when I was homeless as well. Ultimately, I'd like to become a judge. This will help children in the court system who are just like me with adoption, child protection, foster care, etc., to prevent them from suffering through what I did. With the scholarship, I can pursue my dream of transferring to college and earning my master's degree in criminal justice. I’ve always dreamed of becoming a judge since I was young. When I was in fifth grade I did this black history month project. We had to pick a person and then research them. I decided to pick a random person and chose Thurgood Marshall. Since then, becoming a lawyer/judge has always been my passion. If I win this scholarship, it will officially make my childhood dream come true. I plan to improve and strengthen my community once I graduate by providing homes for at least most of the city of Camden and helping children in the family court system by providing a home and resolving their issues inside their current homes. Another dream of mine has always been to provide homes for the homeless in my hometown, Camden. Since I'm from the city of Camden there are a lot of homeless people that you see in the streets and it's sad. My other dream since the sixth grade is to provide homes for homeless people, at least 70 percent of them. Once I graduate I want to help children in need of a loving home for example child protective service children, children in adoption or foster care homes, and children who live in toxic households as well as children with divorced parents. Children should be treated as a child without having to grow up too fast. The reason why I am saying this is because I was in the same predicament when I was younger and in the family court system. This is exactly why I need to help these children and earn my degree and diploma so I can help them.

Another thing is that I want to provide every child with a happy, healthy, and loving home where they know they are loved and shouldn't have to worry about anything bad happening. All children should have a happy and loving home. A child shouldn't have to worry about the fact of being homeless or having a moment where they need to step out of a child's place no matter what. A child should have food and water and parents or guardians who try everything in their hearts to protect them from danger in this world. As well as providing homes for children I want to provide homes for teenagers and young adults and as well as fully grown adults. They should be treated the same way as children and be provided with a home of their own instead of living on the streets.

I want children to be children instead of being put in situations where they can't be children anymore. I want them to be provided with a home. Provided with food, water, and shelter, and provided with a house full of love. As a child who grew up in multiple households and didn't feel like they had a home, I don't want that for children who are my age when I grow up.
