At Pond Lehocky Giordano, we are honored to highlight another outstanding recipient of our 25 Days of Scholarships campaign — a student whose determination, resilience, and compassion perfectly represent the values this initiative was created to celebrate. Today, we shine a spotlight on Faith Flaveney, a nursing student from Roswell, Georgia, currently pursuing her bachelor’s degree in nursing at Columbus State University, Class of 2027.
Faith’s submission captured our attention from the start. In her video, she shared her personal journey with candor and conviction — revealing not only the challenges she’s faced, but also the passion that fuels her purpose. Diagnosed with ADHD, Faith has never allowed that label to limit her potential. Instead, it’s become part of the reason she’s so committed to becoming a nurse: she understands firsthand what it feels like to be misunderstood or overlooked, and she wants to be the kind of caregiver who listens, understands, and uplifts.
Beyond the classroom, Faith works as a client support worker helping individuals dealing with mental health and substance use challenges. Whether she’s offering emotional support, navigating care resources, or simply showing up for someone in crisis, her actions already reflect the values of a dedicated healthcare professional. Her long-term goal is to become a nurse practitioner focused on bridging gaps in healthcare access — especially for underserved communities, where compassionate and consistent care is too often out of reach.
For Faith, this $1,000 scholarship is more than just financial support — it’s a powerful reminder that her journey matters. It will help alleviate the economic strain of pursuing her degree and allow her to focus more fully on her mission: to heal, to serve, and to make a lasting difference in the lives of others. As she put it herself, “I’m beyond grateful! This scholarship is a big step in my journey to becoming a nurse, and it reminds me to keep showing up, even when it’s hard. I’m not stopping here!”
Faith’s story embodies the spirit of our 25 Days of Scholarships campaign. Her values – perseverance, empathy, and service – are the same ones that guide our firm’s commitment to justice and community impact. We’re proud to support her and can’t wait to see how she continues to shine in her academic and professional journey.
About the 25 Days of Scholarships
Launched in 2025, Pond Lehocky Giordano’s 25 Days of Scholarships is a nationwide initiative designed to recognize and support hardworking students across the country. Each day in June, we are awarding a $1,000 scholarship to a student enrolled in a two-year college, four-year university, trade school, or other accredited educational program.
Our goal is to help reduce financial barriers so recipients can focus on what matters most — their education and their future. Each scholarship winner is featured on our website and social media channels, allowing us to celebrate their unique stories, academic goals, and commitment to community impact.
Faith Flaveney is one of 25 remarkable students we are proud to support through this campaign.
