My mother passed away over a year ago, and since then I have been on autopilot trying to stay busy. I have worked over 60 hours a week while being a full-time student during the semester and could not bear the weight these pressures put onto me. This scholarship means I can take one of my jobs away, take back some “me” time and start volunteering as a soccer coach again.

I will be graduating this school year, and I look forward to making a difference in our world with the skills that I’ve learned at UWM. Social work became my calling when I realized that I was put here to speak up for the people without a voice and help everyone that I can! This scholarship means a lot because on top of the financial benefit, there is a sense of acknowledgment that shows that my hard work is not going unnoticed.

I grew up helping my parents as a translator and interpreter and received so much joy when they were able to understand. Ever since then my siblings and I have helped them learn English. I am extremely thankful for my scholarship. There is still uncertainty in my situation and a possibility of me having to take a break from school in order to get the funds. However, I am extremely grateful for this help and will always be.

I work full time, compete on UWM’s D1 swimming and diving team, and still can maintain a 3.778 GPA, so receiving this scholarship helps me more than I can ever express. Being financially independent and still attending school becomes extremely stressful at times, and this scholarship takes some of that stress off my shoulders. I will continue to work hard and prove that it was the right decision to select me to receive this scholarship.
