“I applied for and was both thankful and excited to be a recipient of the Workforce Development Scholarship,” said Endeshaw who shared how the financial support allowed her to break the financial barrier that prevented her from furthering her education. “Going to school, despite being a busy mom, has taught me that I can do anything I set my mind to. I encourage other people who might be hesitating to pursue their dreams and embrace the challenge.”

I am a single father to twin nine-year old’s and I have been paying for school with my own limited funds with some help from credit cards. Receiving the Workforce Development Scholarship will lighten my financial burden, allowing me to take a third class this semester and next semester. This will reduce the time it takes for me to graduate.”
