Today, A Second Home for You and Little Adventurers Academy came together in a heartfelt collaboration to support the 6th graders at Orchard Park Academy. Witnessing the joy, excitement, and genuine smiles on the students’ faces reminded us why this work matters so much. It was more than an event, it was a moment of connection, encouragement, and community. We truly had a great time pouring into these young scholars and look forward to many more opportunities to serve together❤️‍🔥

This scholarship was created from a place of love, legacy, and lived inspiration. Years ago, I met Dr. Charleyse S. Pratt at my church, Mount Zion of Oakwood. I never imagining that one day I would have the honor of working with her through my employment while she served at Cleveland State University. Over time, our relationship grew into a friendship built on deep respect.

What stayed with me most was her powerful greeting to students in the Sullivan-Deckard Scholarship, a message filled with belief, dignity, and hope. When Dr. Pratt went home to be with God in 2017, her son Jarrett Pratt courageously stepped in to continue her legacy. Watching him carry forward her heart for students, while adding his own compassion, moved me deeply.

Every time I heard that Scholar's Creed, it sent chills through me, it reminded me that words, when rooted in love, can change lives. That moment, and that legacy, inspired me to create this for my scholarship. This is my way of honoring her spirit and passing forward belief to those we serve❤️‍🔥
