I am writing to express my deepest thanks for your generous gift to make my educational scholarship possible. I have completed my first year in the Speech and Language Disabilities major. I have made so many new, great friends. I have held a very high cumulative grade point average. I have grown as a person and without your donation; my education would not have been possible.
