In 2015, Gilbert created the Jackson County Omega Lamplighters.  The Lamplighters are a mentoring group for males sponsored by Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Incorporated, of which LaDray is a proud member.  In his work in building this program, Gilbert has taken young males from the rural farms of North Florida to The White House in Washington, DC.  Each year, the kids are treated to a cross country trip that teaches them about The Civil rights Movement as well as introduces them to college campuses.  Several of his Lamplighters have excelled in the program and were invited to participate in the New England Science Symposium sponsored by Harvard Medical School.  They will return to Harvard for the third consecutive year in 2018.

 

Attorney Gilbert is a native of Malone, Florida.  He was the first African-American to sign a Division One baseball scholarship out of his high school.  He graduated from FAMU's School of Business and Industry in 2004 with a degree in Business Administration/Marketing before graduating the school's law program in 2008.
