Seen. Known. Inspired.

"I didn’t know what to expect at first. But looking back, the connections I’ve made and the people I’ve met have changed my life in ways I couldn’t have imagined. My work communications class with Professor Doug Faulkner gave me the connections that led to my internship. Nothing in college is unnecessary—it all serves a purpose."

"The gratitude I feel is unmatched. Every semester, when I see my account balance at zero because of my scholarships, I am overwhelmed with joy. Someone who doesn’t even know me is pouring into my future, just like my mom poured into our community. People used to say, ‘How are you going to make a life there?’ But the opportunities at GU have been abundant. I see the impact of these donations, and it makes my heart so happy for what we’re doing here at GU. People who don’t know me still choose to invest in my life and my dreams."

"I never thought I would end up doing three internships. I never imagined the opportunity in my advertising class would eventually lead me to an internship. But it's all part of God's plan. Keep working hard, stay positive, and trust that everything happens for a reason. Every experience had its special moments. But my first internship with GU’s marketing department was special because it was the start of everything."

"Your generosity has allowed me to keep going, to fight for my future. It's not just something you put in a thank-you card—it's deeply personal. Because of you, I have the ability to attend. This experience has taught me what truly matters. I’ve learned to lean into faith and the support of this community. I’m grateful to everyone who has helped me stay in this fight."
