The Forum Group presents $20,000 Scholarship to Nevada State University Student-Athletes

The Forum Group Founder and CEO Kevin Columbus proudly presented a $20,000 scholarship investment to student-athletes at Nevada State University during the university’s inaugural athletics season under the leadership of Athletic Director Yvonne Wade.

Supporting Nevada State Athletics in its first season is not simply about funding a program. It is about backing leadership and investing at the foundation.

Surrounded by student-athletes, their families, and coaches, the presentation reflected what The Forum Group believes at its core: ownership creates opportunity.

One student-athlete shared that the scholarship allows her to “focus more on my studies and extracurricular activities as a student-athlete, knowing that some of my financial burden has been eased.”

Another, a first-generation Black female student-athlete balancing academics, athletics, and two jobs, described the support as “not only an investment in my education, but also in my growth and determination to succeed in life.”

A business major raised by a single mother shared that the scholarship “eases a significant financial burden for both of us.”

And a first-generation minority student-athlete pursuing a career as a Forensic Nurse wrote that the investment “lifts the weight off my shoulders” as she works toward walking across the stage with her degree.

This is why The Forum Group builds ecosystems. The same operational discipline that drives global production, live events, manufacturing, and commercial distribution also drives community investment.

Nevada State University Athletics is building culture in year one. The Forum Group is proud to stand alongside leadership that understands execution, accountability, and long-term impact.
