Help. Hope. Heal.
The MAY-B Foundation began awarding scholarships to honor the memory of Mable Alice Young Beasley, an inspirational health and physical education teacher who died of metastatic breast cancer in 2012. Mable knew what it was like to lose her father her sophomore year of college. She wanted to drop out of school and help her mother financially manage back at home but her mother wanted her to stay in school and improve her life beyond the poverty stricken and segregated area of North Carolina in which she lived. She was able through the support and encouragement of others to continue her education and earn her degree.
