JLD Scholarship Fund: Community gala focuses on turning pain into purpose

More than sixty guests gathered for the first annual Johnny Leroy “Lee Lee” Dawkins Scholarship “Where Are They Now” program on Sunday, December 11 at Lexington’s Edward C. Smith Civic Center. The event and silent auction served as a fundraiser for the scholarship fund that began 11 years ago after Johnny Leroy Dawkins Jr. was tragically killed in gun violence.
