Sullivan joined together with the Greater Mandeville Police Foundation, the Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 42 and local businessman Denis Bechac to set up a scholarship fund for Mandeville High School graduates. They then organized last Saturday's fundraise, Silky's Soiree, to raise the funds needed to set up the fundraiser. The event was a true family affair with children running around playing while parents sat on the berms, listening to music by the Huey P's and dining on food donated by local restaurants. Silky and hisfamily even joined in the festivities and helped sell raffle tickets and personally thanking those that came out.
