I deserve this scholarship because i’m a hard working young lady. I strive for greatness and success. I’ve been through many things and many obstacles. Never have I let anything stand in the way of my education, there were many times I felt like giving up. I always recovered better than before.

Coming from a low income household, college wasn't really a big topic for many reasons. We struggled our whole lives. When I was 17 years old my family went through the toughest time and I realized I had to get a job ASAP! Being a full time student it was really tough working 36 to 42 hours a week. Trying to keep up with homework, college application, scholarships and trying to manage time with my one year old daughter, life

Funding for college was starting to come into effect but it was still expensive and most lower to middle class families couldn’t afford it.
