When did you start at Palmer Scholars?

Palmer Scholars Class of 2014


We’re excited to highlight Davon White, a proud member of the Class of 2014 and a true example of what it means to carry the Palmer Scholars legacy forward. Today, Davon is the Co-Founder of All Bets on Us, this is more than a clothing brand, it’s building community. The brand is dedicated to uplifting the artists, innovators, and leaders who shape our region.

Their apparel is made with creatives in mind, clothes you can wear with pride while out in the world doing what you do best. But what truly sets All Bets on Us apart is its commitment to purpose-driven impact. Every purchase helps create meaningful opportunities for local artists to shine, grow, and be seen.



Reflecting on his journey, Davon offers this advice to current and future Scholars:

“Align yourself with like-minds, stay curious, and understand your values! The road of becoming is challenging, but you have a network of people behind you who believe in you and won’t let you fail.”

Davon’s words are a powerful reminder of the strength that comes from knowing who you are and knowing you’re not alone.


He also shared how meaningful it’s been to witness the evolution of Palmer Scholars:

“It’s been amazing to watch the organization grow in this new chapter! It makes me proud to be a Palmer Scholar. I’d love to stay involved and support where I can—let’s get some alumni-focused events going!”

Thank you, Davon, for continuing to inspire through your leadership, vision, and pride in the Palmer community. We’re cheering you on every step of the way!

 SUPPORT OUR MISSION TODAY!

Palmer Scholars acknowledges that our work is carried out on, and our office space is located within, occupied Coast Salish land, specifically that of the Puyallup Tribe of Indians. We pay respect to Coast Salish Elders past and present and extend that respect to their descendants and to all Indigenous peoples. To acknowledge this land is to recognize its longer history and our place in that history; it is to recognize these lands and waters and their significance for the peoples who lived and continue to live in this region, whose practices and spiritualties were and are tied to the land and the water, and whose lives continue to enrich and develop in relationship to the land, waters, and other inhabitants today.

 

We also pause to recognize and acknowledge the labor upon which our country, state, and institutions are built.

We remember that our country is built on the labor of enslaved people who were kidnapped and brought to the U.S. from the African continent and recognize the continued contribution of their survivors. We also acknowledge all immigrant labor, including voluntary, involuntary, trafficked, forced, and undocumented peoples who contributed to the building of the country and continue to serve within our labor force. We acknowledge all unpaid care-giving labor.

 

To the people who contributed this immeasurable work and their descendants, we acknowledge our/their indelible mark on the spaces in which we operate today. It is our collective responsibility to critically interrogate these histories, to repair harm, and to honor, protect, and sustain this land.
