It is our honor to present the Arnise Malcom Scholarship Fund at Delaware State University in memory of Arnise R. Malcom. Arnise brought light and warmth into the lives of everyone who knew her. She grew up in Wilmington, Delaware, and was actively pursuing her Ed.D at Delaware State University. She worked as an Eligibility Certification Specialist/Athletic Advisor at Delaware State University, where she dedicated herself to helping college students realize their full potential and do their very best in school. She worked closely with student-athletes, supporting and guiding them to maintain strong academics so they could continue playing the sports they loved. She believed deeply in the power of education, discipline, and encouragement, and she took great pride in helping young people succeed both in the classroom and on the field.
 
Her passion for sports was a defining part of her life. Her love of athletics began at a very young age, playing T-ball, and continued to grow throughout the years. She played AAU field hockey and soccer in high school and continued playing field hockey in college, carrying with her the teamwork, resilience, and competitive spirit that she later poured into mentoring others.
 
Her legacy lives on in the memories she created, the love she gave so freely, and the countless lives she touched. If you share Arnise's passion to help young men and women realize their full potential through education at Delaware State University, please contribute in her honor today.
