Each year, we’re honored to shine a light on an incredible student who embodies leadership, compassion, and a commitment to making a difference. This year, we’re thrilled to announce that Lucy Naiman, a senior at Sehome High School, has been selected as the 2025 RedCloud Consulting and Toys for Kids Seattle Scholarship Recipient.
Now in its eighth year, this scholarship reflects RedCloud’s ongoing commitment to supporting the next generation of leaders who lift up their communities.
Lucy is the definition of the spirit RedCloud looks for! A 4.0 GPA student and dedicated community volunteer, she has spent more than 150 hours serving as a juror and attorney in Teen Court — a peer-led program that gives young people the opportunity to take accountability, rebuild trust, and change their futures.
“I had made a difference! Simply by speaking on behalf of my peer.” — Lucy Naiman
Lucy’s story began nervously — hands shaking in front of a judge and jury — and grew into a powerful calling to advocate for others. Today, Lucy speaks with confidence, purpose, and compassion.
“Speaking up fills me with joy, not anxiety, as I am able to give back to my community and give a voice to my peers.”
Her mentors describe her as “compassionate, confident, and determined to lead with empathy.” Lucy hopes to continue her education with the goal of becoming a lawyer, turning her passion for advocacy into a career of service.
“Each year, this scholarship reminds us why we do this work — to invest in our region’s most important resource, young people, who inspire us with their courage, leadership, and heart,” said Brett Alston, RedCloud Managing Partner and Toys for Kids Seattle Board Member. “Lucy represents everything this scholarship stands for, and we’re so proud to support her journey.”
Through our partnership with Toys for Kids Seattle, RedCloud has proudly awarded scholarships to outstanding students for eight years running. These young leaders remind us that investing in education is one of the most meaningful ways we can give back.
