Our Mission

The Ligons Scholarship Foundation has a mission to help one academic student at a time while giving back to our community.

The Foundation was established in 2019 with a goal to give back to local high schools in Sacramento. We award a $500 scholarship to assist students with expenses as they transition to college.

The three high schools were selected by design, they are the high schools where our three children, La Shawnna Tyler, Dr. Shon Josef Tyler, DDS and Jordan Ligons graduated from. Our children were assisted by others along the way to help them reach their educational goals and it was important to us to give a little something back to these communities and support other students to achieve their educational goals.

This investment of the Ligons Scholarship Foundation in our local communities can create individuals to envision enhancements for themselves, their future and the community at large—helping one student at a time.
