Support: Scholarship

I am pursuing a degree in Human Services because my curiosity about the human mind comes from personal experience. Growing up, I was bullied and often felt invisible as the youngest child. Those moments shaped my desire to create safe, supportive spaces where people feel they belong.

Education became my turning point. I love learning and am determined to be the first in my immediate family to earn a degree and build a stable future. My grandfather’s encouragement—to value education, learn from my choices, and help others—guides my goal of transferring to a four-year college to major in Social Work.

Although college has brought stress and burnout, I’ve learned to persevere through structure, peer support, and resilience. These challenges have strengthened my empathy and commitment to serving others.
