Destiny's Legacy

Destiny’s academic and professional journey was marked by numerous achievements. After moving to Dallas, TX, she excelled in the talented and gifted programs, earning her countless accolades as an artist and scholar. She continued her education at Sachse High School, graduating with honors in the Class of 2018 and becoming a Longhorn at The University of Texas in Austin, where she earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Fine Arts, Class of 2022. Her dedication to her craft led her to become the Co-editor of Comics and Illustration of The Daily Texan Newspaper at UT. After graduation, she embarked on a successful career as a freelance artist and illustrator, working on various projects, including creating editorial illustrations for National Public Radio (NPR).

Our Family has established this fund to support other talented artists in honor of our beloved Destiny. We will use this fund to award grants to individual students and programs that help students pursue their artistic talents. Our Family will select nominated students and programs each year to receive financial support to attend and facilitate programs that advance student studies in the arts. Although Destiny is no longer with us, we aim to provide a way for her spirit to live on by helping others pursue their passion for the arts.

Your contribution to the Destiny Alexander Memorial Fund for the Arts is not just a donation but a testament to the value of art and the potential of young artists. Your support is integral to furthering Destiny’s memory and nurturing deserving young artists in our community. Please join us in this important endeavor.
