Hello, I am Violette M'cormack a Sierra Leonean. I have applied to the Biomedical Sciences graduate program at Hood College in Frederick Maryland. I'll like to know if I am eligible for the esperanza education fund scholarship since I am currently in my country Sierra Leone. Coming from a developing country where education has been a challenge, an opportunity from The Esperanza Education Fund Scholarship will help me acquire the knowledge and skills, as well as nurture good attitudes and values that would be beneficial to my nation.
