I love my home, and I had always dreamed of working here and doing my best to give back to the community that has given me everything. For a long time that dream seemed as though it would never become a reality, but with the opportunities and scholarship support I found at UPIKE, my wishes became more than a dream. They became possible. Maddie Smith / Belfry, Ky.
