Founded by actress/producer Gail Bean (Snowfall, P-Valley), nonprofit organization Dream Above The Influence is making a profound impact on the lives of Atlanta’s high school seniors through their innovative scholarship event, “All Of My Love.”
During a special ceremony last night at Katch Kitchen & Cocktails in Atlanta, the transformative initiative provided each of the twenty-two remarkable high school seniors from the Atlanta area a $1,913 scholarship, paving the way for them to pursue their higher education dreams. The amount is a special homage to the founding year of Delta Sigma Theta, the iconic sorority of which Bean is a member.
The “All Of My Love” scholarship event was a testament to Dream Above The Influence’s commitment to nurturing the potential of young individuals and fostering their academic aspirations.
“I want to leave the next generation knowing that “The sky’s the limit”! If you can think of it, you can achieve it.”
Gail Bean
These scholarships are not just financial support, but a symbol of hope and belief in the potential of these young minds. Through this scholarship event, the organization aims to remove some of the financial barriers that can often hinder students from pursuing higher education. The event not only celebrates academic excellence but also recognizes qualities such as leadership, resilience, and dedication.
In addition to the monetary scholarship, recipients of the “All Of My Love” award will gain access to a network of mentors, resources, and opportunities to further enhance their educational experience. Dream Above The Influence is committed to providing ongoing support to ensure that these scholars thrive and achieve their fullest potential.
