Delbert B. Madison II taught us that challenges don't define us—our response to them does. Diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy at age 7, Delbert never allowed his condition to limit his spirit or determination. He graduated with honors, inspired countless individuals, and left an enduring legacy of courage and positivity.
Today, we honor his extraordinary life by providing scholarships to students who demonstrate similar resilience in the face of adversity.
The Delbert B. Madison II Foundation provides economic opportunities to students who have persevered through life challenges, empowering them to pursue their educational dreams and create positive change in their communities.
