...You Create Opportunities

"I would like to extend a warm and heartfelt thank you to the Katha and Clifton Black Endowed Scholarship program for noticing the potential and drive I have to making an impact in my community as a nurse. This scholarship has solidified my purpose and goals in the nursing community; to create opportunities for change one small step at a time. With this scholarship blessing I can now focus completely on my studies without worry of the bill that comes along with it."

"Without the individuals who invest in students’ education and futures, my dream would have been postponed and forgotten. My story is just one of the many. So many young people have dreams they want to achieve but no idea how they will achieve them. It is many of you here today who are making it possible and therefore I want to thank those who help invest in the futures and careers of students here at San Jac."

"My goal is to give back at least the amount I was given in art and design scholarships. I’m fortunate that I have the means to give back to the College. We see firsthand how important it is to continue supporting education in our community."
