Mission
"Do It, The LEE Way" signifies our commitment to fostering Loyalty, Eagerness, and Education in everything we do.
At the DLee23 Foundation, our mission is a testament to Darius Lee's indomitable spirit, determination, and unwavering work ethic. We are dedicated to empowering youth and young adults, inspiring them to transcend their circumstances and pursue higher education.
Understanding the challenges faced by students with limited resources, our foundation strives to alleviate the burden of everyday necessities college students face. Our scholarship goal is to eliminate the stress associated with these challenges, allowing students to concentrate on their academics and future aspirations.
Our commitment extends beyond addressing immediate needs. We provide alternative solutions to negative environments by emphasizing character building, teamwork, sportsmanship, and, above all, the paramount importance of education. Through these initiatives, we aim to create a positive and nurturing environment that fosters personal growth and resilience.
....the DLee23 Foundation was created in memory of Division 1 college basketball player, #23 Darius Lee. Tragically, 6 months away from earning his bachelors Degree, Darius fell victim to a random mass shooting on June 20th, 2022, during a visit home from college, robbing him of his dreams and aspirations.
