"Words cannot express how utterly thankful I am for your generosity in funding the scholarship that I have received this year. I understand what an honor and privilege it is to receive this scholarship."

The financial assistance you provided will help me get my prerequisites out of the way for me to start on my bachelor's degree... again thank you for giving me this opportunity to pursue my degree. Eventually, I will go on to help others and successfully start my career to better my and my son's life."

"I was excited and grateful to learn about the scholarship awarded to me this school year. I want you to know how thankful I am for your generosity... I intend to finish my degree in Computer Animated Drafting and Design and Technology and then pursue a Bachelor's degree in Engineering. Your generosity will allow me to continue my education."

"Thank you so much for granting me this scholarship. I am so grateful for the opportunity you are giving me."

"Thank you for your generosity, which will allo me to take my dreams and make them reality."

"Besides alleviating some of the costs of education, this scholarship tells me that I am not walking alone-there are individuals and organizations that believe in me and bear my success personally."
