The Dukins Nelson Memorial Scholarship honors those individuals who have faced challenges in their lives and have,
through the strength of their character and the passion of their hearts, turned them into opportunities to
grow, inspire, teach, care for, and lead those around them.
Dukins “Duke” Nelson was one such individual.
The Duke Nelson Scholarship is intended for an underprivileged student with interests in music, videography, and/or photography, in addition to an innate passion for success outside of what is perceived as possible in their community.
This student will be awarded $2,500 to enable them to turn their passion into a career through college education, skills training, apprenticeship or other educational needs.
