The South Carolina Education Lottery’s LIFE Scholarship, funded by South Carolina Education Lottery proceeds, continues to shape futures both on and off the field. Meet two alumni whose careers are rooted in sports and community impact.

Adam Gorlitsky, Executive Director of I Got Legs, empowers athletes with disabilities to reach new heights through adaptive sports. Greg Burgess, VP of Stadium Grounds & Operations for the Greenville Drive, keeps the game-day magic alive behind the scenes.

These stories prove that a LIFE Scholarship can take you anywhere — on the field, in the community, and beyond.

This photo shows a cozy and modern café interior. A hand in the foreground is holding an iced coffee in a clear plastic cup with a lid and straw. The background features a seating area with white chairs, soft-toned furniture, and large windows letting in natural light. The décor includes potted plants, a patterned rug, a glass-top coffee table, and wall art. Outside, it appears to be a rainy day, adding to the cozy ambiance.
