JLD Scholarship Accepting Applications

We’re excited to share that the 2026–2027 JLD Scholarship Fund applications are now open!

Each year, JLD Community Solutions supports young men of color graduating from Lexington Senior High School as they pursue higher education—and this year is no different.

Because of your support, we’re already off to a strong start.

Through our recent 16th Annual Fish Fry Fundraiser, we raised $2,000 toward scholarships.

That’s more than a number—it’s real impact. It’s one step closer to helping a student access college, leadership opportunities, and a brighter future.

Now Accepting Applications

Deadline: April 24th

We encourage eligible students to apply and our community to help us spread the word so no opportunity is missed.

Scholarship recipients will be announced at the Lexington Senior High School senior assembly on May 1st.
