The Chadwick A. Boseman Memorial Scholarship is intended to fully cover the tuition price of Howard’s College of Fine Arts for four years. ❤️
“Many exemplary artists are not afforded the opportunity to pursue higher learning; we hope to support as many students as possible by removing the financial barrier to education. This endowment represents Chad’s devotion to the craft, his compassion for others, and his deep desire to support future storytellers,” Chadwick’s wife, Taylor Simone Ledward-Boseman, said in a statement.
Howard University launched the new scholarship with Netflix, which is home to Chadwick’s two final projects:. As the inaugural donor, Netflix will give the scholarship to four students this fall, one for each class year. Per, the selected recipients are: freshman Sarah Long , sophomore Shawn Smith , junior Janee’ Ferguson , and senior Deirdre Dunkin .also notes, the scholarship will be granted to only one incoming freshman per year.
“This scholarship embodies Chadwick’s love for Howard, his passion for storytelling and his willingness to support future generations of Howard students,” Wayne A.I. Frederick, the president at Howard, shared in a statement. “I am thankful for the continuous support and partnership of Chadwick’s wife, Mrs. Simone Ledward-Boseman, and to Netflix for this important gift.”
“While [Chadwick] was taken from us too soon, his spirit is with us always in his work and the good that he has inspired,” Ted Sarandos, Netflix co-CEO and CCO, also shared. “He always spoke of his time at Howard and the positive way it shaped his life and career. Now, we will have the opportunity to give many future superheroes a chance to experience the same. We are grateful to Simone and Chadwick’s whole family and our partners at Howard University for making this possible.
