Scholarship Recipients
"Receiving this scholarship was a game-changer for me as a single mother. Balancing school, work, and parenting was incredibly tough, and there were many times I wasn’t sure how I would keep going. The scholarship eased the financial burden and allowed me to focus on my education without constant worry. It helped me not only stay in school but also gave me the confidence to transition from a community college to a university. Making that leap was a huge challenge, but the support from the scholarship made it possible. This opportunity truly changed the course of my life, and I’m forever grateful for the foundation’s belief in me."
