Dear Adaora, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for awarding me the Rose Ifebigh Memorial Scholarship. It truly means so much to me to be recognized and supported in this way. I’m honored to carry on Rose Ifebigh’s legacy through this scholarship, and it encourages me to keep pushing forward despite the challenges that come with being a female immigrant pursuing higher education in the United States. Your support eases a significant financial burden, allowing me to focus more on my studies and on building the skills I need to become a therapist dedicated to helping others. As someone deeply committed to advocating for marginalized communities and promoting mental health awareness, this scholarship empowers me to continue my journey toward creating positive change for women, immigrants, and children. Your generosity directly fuels my drive to develop community initiatives that foster understanding, healing, and inclusion, particularly for those who feel unheard or unseen. I am deeply inspired by your mission to uplift Nigerian women studying abroad. Your commitment reminds me that compassion and action can create ripples of hope for so many. I hope to honor this gift by serving others and one day supporting future students as you have supported me. Thank you for believing in my dreams and for helping make them possible. Thank you, Hasnah Hussin
