2025 Promise Scholarship Award

Congratulations to Mekhi Tyler—he is our 2025 Promise Scholarship honoree and received a $12,000 scholarship to attend a 4-year university!

Mekhi graduated from James S. Rickards High School with a 3.7 weighted GPA. This inspiring young man was an active member of Student Government, the Bowling Team, and the National Honors Society. He also serves as a mentor and is involved in community church outreach.

This highly motivated and driven individual plans to attend the University of West Florida to study medicine. His career goal is to be an anesthesiologist.

The Promise Scholarship, awarded on behalf of Consulting Together Community Outreach (CTCO NP), aims to increase college access for minorities by removing some of the financial burdens associated with college.

“Any youth who is motivated, regardless of financial status, should have the opportunity to further their education,” said a representative from CTCO.

Mekhi is the first in his family to pursue higher education.

“I believe that this scholarship will provide me with the assistance necessary to achieve my academic and professional goals. My personal goal is to continue to be a support for my family and younger brother,” he said. “I would love nothing more than to make my family proud while also contributing to making the world a better place.”

Mekhi, we know you’ll continue to do great things! Congratulations and we look forward to following your journey!
