The Marcedes Lewis Foundation was established by Marcedes Lewis to support the youth in our community. His love of children and the success of a childhood dream prompted Marcedes to start this foundation.
The goal of the foundation is to award scholarships to youth in the community who otherwise would not be able to participate in youth sports such as football, baseball, basketball, volleyball, soccer, etc. The scholarship recipients will be required to maintain certain academic standards and report to the foundation periodically.
The foundation will follow each recipient through his/her youth and high school years in the hope of being able to assist in any necessities that he/she may incur as they enter college.
The ultimate goal is for the foundation to grow to a point to support sending a child to college on a full ride. The college recipient would also have requirements that would have to be met to receive a scholarship renewal each year. |
