"This scholarship means so much to me and helps allow me to continue on the path to refine and hone my education. I am so grateful and thankful for this gift, I cried tears of joy when I received the news I had been chosen. I am 43 years old and have returned to school to pursue an Associate in Applied Science degree in Advertising & Graphic Design, as well as an Associate in Science degree with a focus on the environment and sustainability. Thank you so much again for your generosity and for this opportunity to achieve my goals."

– Kristin M., scholarship recipient
