South Mountain Community College

“I would like to thank you all for your generous contributions to my education, it’s through these donations that I am able to pursue my degree and career. I began at South Mountain Community College with the intention to simply get started on my degree, still unsure of what I wanted to do. Through the guidance of my amazing counselors here, I was introduced to the behavioral health studies program. This opportunity allowed me to set true goals towards my passion of helping children and families. I can now confidently see myself working in this field and making a difference. This scholarship provides me the peace of mind knowing that my expenses for my education are more manageable. This scholarship also makes me feel supported in what I am working toward which aids in my motivation to complete my degree. With the opportunities provided I have found success academically and within my current practice of holistic health care. I provide birth support services to my clients here in Phoenix and opportunities such as this have allowed me to learn how to better serve those clients. I am very grateful for these opportunities as they provide so much more than financial stability, but confidence and knowing I am supported.”
