Being awarded my first-ever scholarship, especially as the recipient of the inaugural Social Care Scholarship, is both an incredible and humbling achievement. This scholarship is not only a recognition of my passion for making a difference in people’s lives but also an affirmation of the hard work and dedication I’ve put into my studies, and personal development. It motivates me to continue pushing forward, knowing that others believe in my potential and my vision for a more inclusive, supportive society. Beyond financial relief, it strengthens my commitment to social care—empowering individuals, advocating for those without a voice, and creating positive change. This opportunity also reminds me of the responsibility I carry to stay true to my values of empathy, integrity, and service, ensuring that I’m always learning, evolving, and striving to make a meaningful impact.

I am deeply grateful for this scholarship and excited to continue on this path, knowing I have the chance to create lasting, positive change.
