Devante Lane was a young and vibrant college graduate from Bronx, New York. He was extremely intelligent, full of life, thoughtful, and a loving son and friend whose personality and smile brightened every room. Devante was an exceptionally creative person passionate about art and fashion, always donning the latest trends. On July 15, 2020, at the early age of 22, Devante was the unintended victim of gun violence in New Rochelle, New York. His once-promising future was cut too short due to this senseless act of violence. Devante’s father, Jerome Lane, has been a dedicated and proud member of the law firm of Finz & Finz, P.C. for nearly 30 years – he has become part of our family. In honor of Devante, Finz & Finz, P.C. has established the Devante Lane Scholarship Fund to help young Bronx residents fund their college education in his memory.
We welcome organizations, agencies and sponsors to submit annual scholarship and student support programs. For more information, please refer here.
