Hello from Abby's Closet!
As we start preparing for the 2021 Dreams Scholarship application process, we are excited to hear from a past Dreams Scholarship winner. Lisa Amani, our 2020 recipient has been busy since graduating from Roosevelt High school last spring! Lisa has been attending the University of Oregon and plans to major in social work with a minor in psychology. While her first year of college has presented its challenges due to the pandemic, she is determined to succeed, no matter what it takes!
She shared the following words of wisdom. She would like to encourage other students to "persevere through these uncertain times, to focus on what's really important, and to aim for excellence in whatever they may choose to do in their academics, the sky is the limit!" We could not agree more Lisa!
Lisa has set a wonderful example of what being a Dreams recipient is all about. As we head into the application process for our 2021 Dreams Scholarship we are excited to announce that this year we will be offering two, $2,500 scholarships. This additional scholarship is being offered thanks to our expanded Sharing the Love program. Please follow us on social media and check our website for more information. We plan to post application materials in early March.
The Board of Directors would like to thank you all for your continued support!
