“Firstly, I just want to express how grateful I am for your donations that make scholarships like mine possible … As I complete undergrad and move on the medical school, your generosity will help me reach my goal of becoming a physician that provides access to communities that are under-resourced and overlooked without having a significant financial burden on my back. Again, thank you so much for your support.”
