Impact
“The last few years have really made me appreciate and take advantage of my studies at Central Lakes College. Education is not something I take lightly. My continued education has opened up numerous opportunities for myself and my family. I hold near and dear every person and organization who has supported me in reaching my educational goals. I hope one day to have a job working full time with a nonprofit giving back to anyone in need. From the bottom of my hear, thank you for your generosity and thank you for believing in me!”
