2020 Louvenia Johnson Scholarship Recipient

Treyvon Hamberlin and a group of his friends created a You Tube channel in order to entertain viewers. In an essay on job creation from technology, he highlighted this as an example of the way that technology positively impacts the future of today’s youth, ultimately opening up many job opportunities. Treyvon is a senior at Milwaukee Lutheran High School where he has a cumulative grade point average of 3.10. The principal at Henry David Thoreau School said Treyvon has been a very dependable volunteer who never missed a shift for which he has signed up. While maintaining honor roll status and a vigorous volunteer schedule, Treyvon has also participated as a member of the school basketball team, worked part-time at a local shoe store and helped care for both his mother and grandmother. The dedication he has demonstrated leads his principal to conclude that Treyvon will succeed at whatever he sets out to accomplish.
