Christian Dunbar Athletics Scholarship
Christian Dunbar was an amazing 16-year-old who had hopes of being in the NBA before he passed away on June 23rd, 2023.
Christian was one of the sweetest, most genuine, and most straightforward teens in his community. Sports and family were his two greatest passions in life. Christian set out to be the game-changer, so much so that he nicknamed himself "Showtime" because when it was time to play a game, he was sure to deliver.
This scholarship aims to honor the memory of Christian Dunbar by supporting students who share Christian's love for sports.
