I was born on a well-educated but communist country like Cuba. I am a first-generation college student. When I immigrated to United States with the help of my parents. I have been trying to further my education while working full time. I was able to obtain an Associate Degree of Computer Science in a little over two years When I enrolled into a bachelor’s degree program, my mother lost her job due to a job-related injury. She was not well compensated and fired. My and my stepdad had to support her and look for ways to help pay for a surgery that she needed. I had to dropout college to work overtime to help pay for her expenses. I have not been able to go back to school because of financial struggles, and other family tragedies situations. With this scholarship help, I would be able to finish my bachelor’s degree without further student debt burden and be able to work in a fulfilling career and be able to keep supporting my parents and have a better future outlook for my future family.

Greetings, My name is Latasia and I would be honored to receive this scholarship. Computer Science is my passion. I know that I can make a difference in the world by becoming one of the world's greatest computer scientists. This would financially relieve me of being stressed with the concerns of being able to afford college. It has been my dream to become an employee of the Department of Defense. Currently, I am in my senior year of high school and planning on attending a four-year college to major in Computer Science.

Felicia H  on 9/2/2020 12:31:17 PM

Hello my name is Felicia Hendrix and I'm currently the Call Center Coordinator for the OBAT clinic in Boston working with Opioids patients. I tried to apply for this scholarship but for some reason it won't let me. I have applied for a 2.8 year Mortuary program, my current employer does not offer tuition reimbursement for me as I'm non union. I feel I need this scholarship because this generation of Morticians are all elderly and with the recent rash of violence, COVID 19, Opioid death and just natural deaths, the system of our older Morticians need some help. I grew up in the community dealt with and continue to be around death. This school is very expensive but is the only one that is offered in Massachusetts. My love of people and wanting to help them however is what is driving me to pursue this scholarship. I hope that my comments are taken into consideration as I look forward to beginning school November 9,2020 at Fine Mortuary College In Boston ma
