"Since I am not a recipient of financial aid, this money will be a tremendous help."


“High school was quite an experience for me. It was a lot of hard work but at the same time, fun and rewarding. Being the oldest of three sons, I had a lot of responsibilities and duties. I had to manage those duties with my school work and extracurricular activities. I am glad that my hard work and dedication were recognized by the great organization Dollars for Scholars.

“When I first saw the cost of attending a university, I was taken aback. But the Dollars for Scholars scholarship I received will be a tremendous help. It will help diminish the expenses of school and the burden on my parents. I am extremely grateful for the generosity of Dollars for Scholars. I can now go on and pursue my goals without as many worries about money.”
