I am forever grateful to you and your team, who have worked hard to get to where you are today. I can only hope to lead a life that reflects the same hard work and dedication. As I continue my studies, I will use this scholarship to aid my journey in engineering and gain experience to work toward my goals, to discover and improve the planet. This scholarship is a constant motivator that there are people who support and believe in the same cause as I do. I will always remember this kindness and try to pay it forward in any way I can. Thank you, Tracie Mankee

Dear Charles, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for selecting me as a recipient of the Anderson Engineering Scholarship. Receiving this support truly means a lot to me, and it affirms my commitment to my studies and future in engineering. With this scholarship, I’m able to focus more deeply on my civil engineering coursework at Temple University, knowing that I have help covering some of the financial demands of college. Your generosity is lifting a significant weight from my shoulders, and it allows me to dedicate more energy to advancing my skills and growing as a young professional. Coming from Washington, D.C., and being in the early stages of my college journey, I've worked hard to carve a path forward—first as a computer science apprentice at Georgetown and now as a civil engineering major. Looking ahead, my goal is to contribute to infrastructure development and help shape better communities. Support like yours brings me closer to these aspirations and encourages me to persevere through any challenges. I’m truly inspired by your story and your mission to bring more diversity into engineering. Seeing someone who once faced the same doubts and succeeded gives me extra motivation to keep going. Your dedication to making engineering more inclusive is making a real difference, and I’m proud to be part of that change. Thank you for your kindness and for believing in students like me. Your support has an impact that goes far beyond financial help, and I look forward to, one day, giving back to others as you have. Thank you, Jaky Jackson
