Craig D. Butler Scholarship Foundation

Pennsylvania Scholarship Foundation honoring the memory of Craig D. Butler.

CDB Scholarships’ mission is to provide financial assistance to African Americans in pursuit of higher education in the aftermath of gun violence. Our cardinal principle is to ensure that African Americans from under-
served populations are not economically disadvantaged to receive a quality education.

Been a little quiet ’cause ya girl been in the trenches — busy, behind the scenes, and blessed. 🎥💛 And listen… it’s been fruitful.

Choosing my scholarship winners is the best kind of problem. Their stories, their grit, their glow‑up potential? That’s what grabs my heart every time. Pouring into these kids and meeting them in person has been a joy I didn’t even see coming.

If you want the real behind‑the‑scenes of building a scholarship from scratch, grab my book Laying the Foundation Brick by Brick, available everywhere. 📚✨
