Chancey Hope

Dear Be Skilled Find Success, I'm incredibly grateful for being chosen as a recipient of the Be Skilled Find Success Scholarship. Your support means so much to me, and I'm honored by your confidence in my dedication to pursuing a career in the trades. Receiving this scholarship not only lightens the financial load as I prepare to attend Ogle Beauty School this September, but also reassures me that my hard work and commitment to becoming an esthetician are valued and seen. Because of your generosity, I can focus on developing my skills and making the most of my education, rather than worrying about the costs associated with my training. As a first-generation college student from Atlanta, I take great pride in setting a strong example for my younger sister and cousins, showing them that perseverance and a positive attitude can truly open doors. I want them to know that the trades are meaningful and respected paths. Your mission to uplift and showcase the importance of skilled trades perfectly aligns with my own desire to serve others and make a positive impact in my community. Thank you for challenging misconceptions about vocational education and empowering students like me to pursue our passions. Your belief in the skilled trades inspires me to work even harder and to share the value of this work with those around me. I'm looking forward to this journey and hope, one day, to give back and inspire others the way you have inspired me. Your kindness and support have made such a difference in my life. Thank you, Chancey Hope
