I’m dyslexic, and school is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. However, I have big goals, and I want to do meaningful work in the world. To do that, I need the education that college will give me. This scholarship is the encouragement I needed to keep going and to keep working toward those goals. I know I can do hard things, but it’s really nice to have people believing in me and supporting me as I do it. Thank you for believing in me!

2024: School is the hardest thing I’ve ever done in life. It takes all of my internal and external resources to overcome the difficulty that school entails for me. And yet, I love to learn, and I’m determined to get what I can from my college experience and achieve my degree. The Morelli Scholarship has not just helped me financially, but the extra support they provide has also helped me mentally and emotionally. I’m incredibly grateful.
