"My husband and I come from low-income families in the Caribbean, with parents who only went to elementary school. We are both first-generation college graduates who graduated with honors. We are so grateful for this scholarship. It has alleviated our family’s financial burden and allowed me to focus on my studies. I am now in a better position to contribute to breaking down barriers and adding to women of color in leadership. Pursuing this dream would not have been possible without your generosity."
