About Us

Who We Are

Barber Gibbs Dream Memorial Scholarship is created in memory of DeVaughn Gibson affectionately known as Barber Gibb.  Gibb was a 23 year old young man who was  tragically killed  attending a 2019 New Year Eve party.  He was a passionate and inspiring young man who would give the shirt off his back to help someone in need. He cared about others so compassionately that even in death he will continue to lend a helping hand.  All those who personally knew Barb Gibb knew he had an immense love for being a licensed barber.  He practiced his trade daily, up until the day of his untimely death.  Remembering how much he loved his career and how much enjoyment he received from serving his community has brought peace and comfort to his loved ones, including friends and clients. 

What We Do

In his  short 23 years on earth,  he accomplished and succeeded in many academic endeavors such as completing barber school, maintaining a 4.0 GPA at Tri-C where he studied business management and even enrolling in truck driving school.  He was a young man with many dreams  and each dream included a plan to make his community a better place to reside. Our mission is to do whatever it takes to prevent another violent death in our community.  We believe education is the foundation of change.  If we change a persons thinking by providing opportunity for them to accomplish their dreams positively, then my son did not die in vain.  We are advocates for change and our primary goal is to save communities one person at a time.  

How We Help

In honor of Barb Gibbs memory this  non profit scholarship has been created for young adults 18-30 years of age needing assistance in pursuing  their academic dream.  The applicant must be enrolled in a vocational technical school or a higher education undergrad program.  An essay must be completed which will include a one page paper detailing the  applicants plans to make an impact in their community  once they accomplish their dream.  The selected winner(s) will receive an award and a check up to $2,000.00 made out to the applicants attending school.  **** Please remember  check our website for the most current fundraising events , community give back events and our Gibbs Giveaway information .  This information is listed  under fundraiser/ community event link .
