Hello, my name is Keila Viera and I'm currently a junior at Pete Knight High School maintaining a 4.0 GPA or higher throughout my high school years. After high school, I'm attempting to pursue the career of becoming a Registered Nurse Anesthetist. My dream is to be able to work with children and helping others in need. I'm currently enrolled in a medical academy where it's an advanced course where we have clinical experience with patients. However, coming from a low-income family, it's quite difficult to pursue my dreams but I'm never giving up. I'm involved in clubs including AP club and Key Club. I have bilingual awards and I'm currently involved in two sports including soccer and cross country. I've been in swim since my freshman year. Therefore, I've gotten the opportunity to have a week in UC Santa Barbara to have a STEM experience as a college student only being in 7th grade.

I would love to apply for this scholarship because I have always been an A’s and B’s student throughout high-school. I am a sophomore in high school currently with a 4.0 GPA. I would love to win this scholarship because it would help me with my career as a future nurse.

Hello! My name is Alyssa Higgins. I am a full-time student in Cleveland, Tennessee. I have done cheerleading and joined a bunch of clubs throughout my years of school, while maintaining a 3.7 GPA. I believe this scholarship would be a good fit for me because I would love to attend a university and major in psychology. College can be very pricy and I don't want to put my parents in debt, especially since I am not the only child they have to help get through college finances.

Hi! My name is Rose Barczak. Growing up I was raised by a single parent and will be responsible for my finances regarding college. I have maintained a 3.5 plus GPA all through high school. Any help I can get with my future would be appreciated!

HI! As a student who joins every club possible, does swimming and basketball while maintaining a 4.9 weighted GPA, this scholarship would be the a very good fit for me. As a first generation American, its not easy to pay thousands of dollars to get into a university, so I try to strive forward to keep the big burden off of my parents. I plan to attend university as a Pharmaceutical major and I am already being trained as a pharmacy technician by my local pharmacy. I would really appreciate your help towards my future of creating vaccines and medicines that battle preventable diseases.

I’m a pretty cool and smart kid, you should give me this scholarship. I have a 4.5 gpa, I take all honors classes and APs. I am in leadership, sports careers academy, hosa, California scholarship foundation, future medical club, I am president of garden club, and the list goes on. I’m not gonna tell u everything I have already succeeded in because numerous kids who are applying for this scholarship have been just as involved as I have. Instead I am going to tell you my dreams. I love England. I want to live there so badly, but in every situation there’s a problem. My problem is “I don’t have money”. I don’t even have money for in state college, but England is my dream. The beautiful architecture and streets. I plan to be a dermatologist, but I’m still not positive. I definitely want to work somewhere around the medical field. I hope you read my application with enthusiasm because that is the way I am typing it. Thank you.

Hello, my name is Florene Johnson. I am a Native American from the Salt River reservation. I believe that I would be a perfect candidate for this scholarship. I plan on going to NYU for my undergrad, then majoring in biology to become an OB/GYN. I have worked hard to maintain my grades so I can achieve something, instead of being stuck on the reservation. I am asking you for your support on my road to success.

Ashley Franklin  on 8/25/2020 2:54:39 PM

Hello, receiving this scholarship would be a great help for me and my family to pay for my college expenses. I am interested in attending a University as a Psychology major and will hopefully one day become a Clinical Psychologist with a PhD. I genuinely enjoy caring for others and would love to treat and help people with their mental or behavioral issues.

Claire B.  on 6/30/2020 4:19:30 PM

I know I am the one you are looking for!! My name is Claire Barnes and I am currently attending Oakmont HS in Roseville, CA. I have a GPA of 4.06 as an IB student. I am on two sports, water polo and swimming, and I have a weekend job as a lifeguard at LifeTime Athletic. On top of that, my mom has been my only parent now for 8 years, raising 3 of us, so money is slim, but we get by. I have been determined to pour my time into good things of life and to move forward. Education in my backbone, I have overcome adversity by hard work and a drive to succeed. Please help me to achieve my next goal- which is to graduate college and become a Pediatrician.
