Cynthia Prince Memorial Scholarship Fund
The Cynthia Prince Memorial Scholarship was established in 2024 to honor this beloved Lincoln board member. Cynthia devoted much of her life investing her time, passion, and talent at Lincoln Families and many other nonprofits helping to address community inequities and mentoring African American youth.
In order to continue her legacy, the Board of Directors has established the scholarship fund, which will provide funding to help defray the costs for high school senior award recipients as they prepare to begin college or other post-secondary pursuits.
The power and impact that Cynthia’s life embodied cannot be overstated. Her legacy lives on in her son and all the people she touched during her life.
