Thank You Messages
Here are some thank you messages from many of these students.
"As a single mother to four children I have slowly, but steadily worked very hard to continue along the path of gaining an educatino and achieving my academic goals. It is important to me that I show my children, through hard work and dedication, the importance of gaining an education and the ability it give me to support my family and contribute to my community... Thank you very much for your generous support."
"I am so excited for this nursing journey and you don’t know how much this means to me. I currently work two jobs to pay tuition for both EAC and ASU, and this money will bring so much relief to my stress. Thank you again! Have a blessed day!"
