Apply/Nominate a Lotus Scholar
"We practice progress, not perfection." -- Libby
The Olivia Mae Lotus Scholarship blossomed in April of 2021 in dedication to Olivia Mae Fleming (February 25, 1989 – April 15, 2021),
who was an adored daughter, sister, aunt, and friend and loved by the staff and patrons of One Stop Salon Chicago.
​
Olivia was a beacon of light. She brought everyone around her joy and hope. Although she left us far too soon, she did leave behind a legacy of inspiration in the creation of the Lotus Scholarship.
​
A Lotus Scholar embodies:
Strength -- to always continue moving forward
Courage -- to leave their lesser versions behind
Compassion -- to help others without expectations
Empathy -- to relate with those who are struggling
These are traits that Olivia possessed, among many others.

We invite you to Apply or Nominate a candidate for the next
Lotus Scholarship.
