ONYX Foundation Scholars

2024 ONYX Magazine Men of Honor Scholars

Punctuating the importance of education, the ONYX Foundation launched two scholarships, provided by Orlando Health, in 2022. This year, the Reginald Alexander Maycock Black & Everett Braynen Hope Scholarship will be awarded to four male students who show academic promise at high schools, colleges and universities in Florida and The Bahamas. The scholarship is named in honor of ONYX Magazine Publisher Rich Black’s father and uncle. The late Reginald Black and his wife, the late Udell T. Black, were the proprietors of the first Black-owned restaurant in downtown Orlando in the 1960s. The late Everett Braynen and his wife, Linda Y. Braynen, were real estate entrepreneurs in Fort Pierce.
