What Others Say:

Words cannot express my humbleness and extreme gratitude of having received the Richard & Patricia Hazel Minority Scholarship which was awarded to me these past four years. The Community Foundation has been a blessing to me, and I thank you for being there for all others who will follow me. Thanks for helping me achieve my dream, and I will continue to work at reaching higher goals.
