Impact

“Thank you so much for helping to ease the burden of school expenses… As a wife and mother of two children under the age of four, the thought of going back to school was almost unbearable. My current responsibilities plus the fact that my husband is still pursing his own Bachelor’s degree almost deterred me from even investigating the possibility of going back to school. I want my kids to know that I worked hard when reaching for my goals and didn’t give up when it got hard. Teaching them to be self-sufficient is a high priority and I hope to be the example I need to be for them.” – Kristal M., Business Administration major with an Accounting option
