Behind every Nolan Gibbons Memorial Fund grant and scholarship is a real person with a story, a dream, and something meaningful they want to share. We affectionately call our grant and scholarship recipients “NGMFers” because once you are part of this community, you are family.

 

Our NGMFers are musicians, actors, dancers, writers, filmmakers, and artists, each carrying their own story, passion, and dreams. They are people taking a chance on themselves, pursuing an opportunity, continuing their education, creating something meaningful, or finding the courage to share themselves fully.

​

We are honored to support these artists not only financially, but as a community that believes creativity matters and that people deserve to feel seen, encouraged, and connected. We are proud to share a few of their voices here, and we hope other artists watching can see themselves in these stories and someday become part of the NGMF family too. Join us!
