Impact
“As I continue my education at Central Lakes College, I can only smile as I think about my future. Working hard, helping others, and completing my education are all goals that consume my life. With this scholarship, you have helped me make all of these goals realities. For that, I thank you from the very bottom of my heart. You have given myself and my son a gift that can never be reciprocated – a chance for a better life.”
